Genomics Data Analysis False Discovery Rates and Empirical Bayes Methods

Genomics Data Analysis False Discovery Rates and Empirical Bayes Methods

Statisticians have met the need to test hundreds or thousands of genomics hypotheses simultaneously with novel empirical Bayes methods that combine advantages of traditional Bayesian and frequentist statistics. Techniques for estimating the local false discovery rate assign probabilities of differential gene expression genetic association etc. without requiring subjective prior distributions. This book brings these methods to scientists while keeping the mathematics at an elementary level. Readers will learn the fundamental concepts behind local false discovery rates preparing them to analyze their own genomics data and to critically evaluate published genomics research. Key Features:* dice games and exercises including one using interactive software for teaching the concepts in the classroom* examples focusing on gene expression and on genetic association data and briefly covering metabolomics data and proteomics data* gradual introduction to the mathematical equations needed* how to choose between different methods of multiple hypothesis testing* how to convert the output of genomics hypothesis testing software to estimates of local false discovery rates* guidance through the minefield of current criticisms of p values* material on non-Bayesian prior p values and posterior p values not previously published | Genomics Data Analysis False Discovery Rates and Empirical Bayes Methods

Overcoming Fragmentation in Southeast Europe Spatial Development Trends and Integration Potential

Overcoming Fragmentation in Southeast Europe Spatial Development Trends and Integration Potential

With the expansion of the European Union the countries of Southeast Europe have finally been brought together within one socio-political entity. The restructuring of these economies following globalization and neoliberalization has meant that this region has become much more open to geopolitical shifts and trends. While the various countries have all entered into the slow process of European integration the historic fragmentation of this region has led to various conflicts and contradictions in the restructuring and transition of national economies. This volume provides a theoretical and comparative overview which examines the prospects for spatial cohesion in this region. With the need to handle persisting problems and conflicts from the past while coping with new economic and political structures Southeast Europe proves to be a challenging yet fruitful testing ground for how best to overcome fragmentation and establish a long-term process of social and economic integration. | Overcoming Fragmentation in Southeast Europe Spatial Development Trends and Integration Potential
