(i.e., the null hypothesis is actually true for those tests). FDR is a somewhat less conservative/more powerful method for correcting for multiple comparisons than procedures like Bonferroni correction that provide strong control of the family-wise error rate (i.e., the probability that one ...
The Benjamini–Hochberg method controls the False Discovery Rate (FDR) using sequential modified Bonferroni correction for multiple hypothesis testing. While the Bonferroni correction relies on the Family Wise Error Rate (FWER), Benjamini and Hochberg introduced the idea of a FDR to control for multipl...
