A multiple testing approach to high-dimensional association studies with an application to the detection of associations between risk factors of heart disease and genetic polymorphisms.

abstract：:In this paper, we address the problem of detecting outlier samples with highly different expression patterns in microarray data. Although outliers are not common, they appear even in widely used benchmark data sets and can negatively affect microarray data analysis. It is important to identify outliers in order to exp...
