Minimum Validation Sample Size Versus FDR Cutoff. A plot of the minimum validation sample size required using sampling to achieve a target validation probability of 0.5, assuming that the experimental technology, statistical method, and validation technology are accurate. This plot is based on the results of a specific study and can be used to plan validation experiments. A ∙ indicates the minimum sample size for a fixed FDR cutoff and a × indicates that for that FDR threshold the target validation probability can not be achieved.
