摘要
Unlike traditional single hypothesis testing that assesses one statistical assumption at a time, multiple hypothesis testing conducts numerous tests simultaneously within a single study—often leading to severe inflation of false positive risks. One key objective of multiple hypothesis testing is to detect true signals effectively while limiting the proportion of false positives among all rejections. In this talk, I will present some recent advances in multiple hypothesis testing, such as improving detection power for spatial signals by borrowing neighboring information, identifying the joint statistical significance of individual features, and a series of studies based on the e-value. Instead of delving into methodological details, I will illustrate the value of statistical tools in the real world using examples from environmental sciences, mediation analysis, and industrial predictive maintenance.
