Multiple comparisons | Statistical hypothesis testing

Harmonic mean p-value

The harmonic mean p-value (HMP) is a statistical technique for addressing the multiple comparisons problem that controls the strong-sense family-wise error rate (this claim has been disputed). It improves on the power of Bonferroni correction by performing combined tests, i.e. by testing whether groups of p-values are statistically significant, like Fisher's method. However, it avoids the restrictive assumption that the p-values are independent, unlike Fisher's method. Consequently, it controls the false positive rate when tests are dependent, at the expense of less power (i.e. a higher false negative rate) when tests are independent. Besides providing an alternative to approaches such as Bonferroni correction that controls the stringent family-wise error rate, it also provides an alternative to the widely-used Benjamini-Hochberg procedure (BH) for controlling the less-stringent false discovery rate. This is because the power of the HMP to detect significant groups of hypotheses is greater than the power of BH to detect significant individual hypotheses. There are two versions of the technique: (i) as an approximate p-value and (ii) a procedure for transforming the HMP into an . The approach provides a in which the smallest groups of p-values that are statistically significant may be sought. (Wikipedia).

Harmonic Functions

If the Laplacian of a function is zero everywhere, it is called Harmonic. Harmonic functions arise all the time in physics, capturing a certain notion of "stability", whenever one point in space is influenced by its neighbors.
