Q-value and local FDR

Closed this issue · 1 comments

In the early version, there isn't local FDR showed in the result page. But in the latest version, local FDR appeared and the value of it is not the same with q-value. I found their meaning are the same in publication. Why they are different in latest EDGE and which should I use to judge whether the gene or protein is significant?

The old EDGE package is no longer maintained. See http://genomine.org/papers/Storey_FDR_2011.pdf for more on the q-value/local false discovery rate.
