Sentence examples for nominal error rate from inspiring English sources

For instance, if an investigator is interested to detect significant 2-way interactions among 50 SNPs, 1225 tests will be performed which will inflate the family-wise Type I error rate to 1 − (1 − α ) m k = 1 − (1 − 0.05 ) 1225 ≈ 1, where α = 0.05 is the nominal error rate for an individual test without proper control.

However, it gave nominal error rates and good power when there were only 5 centres.

We will clarify the scope of the DeLong et al. method and show that the method has nominal error rates when used in its designed scope.

Surprisingly, the FPR values became more deflated (i.e. lower than the expected nominal error rates of 10 and 20%) when using less stringent thresholds indicating the Bonferroni correction could be conservative.

Their results showed that, under the null hypothesis (i.e., the new biomarkers are useless), the LR test and the Wald test both yield the nominal type I error rate whereas the DeLong test of AUC yields type I error that is far below the nominal level (i.e., it is extremely conservative).

Results indicate that the method maintains the nominal type I error rate even when there is substantial drift in the patient population.

We found that starting with about 15 20 participants in the control sample Type I error rates were close to the nominal Type I error rate using the Satterthwaite approximation for the degrees of freedom.

To test the significance of the resulting P values across all localities, α, the nominal Type 1 error rate, was controlled for multiple tests across locality pairs with a sparse false discovery rate correction [9].

For the methods that can maintain the nominal type I error rate, statistical power is compared.

Analyses will be done in SAS (version 9.3 or higher) with a nominal type I error rate of 0.05.

The LSQ analysis adhered in our simulations with introgression library 1 to the nominal type I error rate.
