Erratum

Bias in the estimation of false discovery rate in microarray studies

Yudi Pawitan, Karuturi R Krishna Murthy, Stefan Michiels and Alexander Ploner

  1. In Section 2.2, in the distribution of P-value, the central and non-central distributions F0 and Gi were in the wrong order. It should be

    and the approximate non-central t distributions are

    This means all the formulas associated with the densities are as reported, except we need to change the sign of {delta}. (The previous formulas worked because the DE genes were symmetric.)

  2. The analysis of BRCA data (Section 3.3) was performed on the original scale. If one uses the logged scale, the results differ slightly. A 3-nonzero-component model (q = 3) still minimizes the AIC, but we would recommend a more stable 2-nonzero-component model.
