Estimation of False Discovery Rate using Sequential Permutation Pvalues
I wrote a paper on sequential permutation test with Tim Bancroft and Dan Nettleton.
The paper "T. Bancroft, C. Du and D. Nettleton (2012).
Estimation of False Discovery Rate Using Sequential Permutation PValues."
has been accepted by Biometrics. To illustrate ideas in the paper and make sequential
permutation test …
Some Useful Properties of Modified Bessel Functions of the First Kind
I have to deal with Modified Bessel functions of the first kind frequently in my research. Here I list some useful properties of them for future reference.
$$I_0'(x) = I_1(x)$$
$$I_1'(x) = \frac{I_0(x)+I_2(x)}{2} $$
$$\frac{I_1(x)}{I_0(x)}\uparrow \Leftrightarrow I_0(x)(I_0(x …
