Figure 3

IBMT correctly estimates the proportion of false positives. All tested methods except Fox (t-test, SMT, and IBMT) correctly control for the true false positive rate. Data shown is the average of 100 simulations and the mid-strength dependence of variance on expression level with (A) d _g = 4, d₀ = 1, (B) d _g = 4, d₀ = 4, (C) d _g = 4, d₀ = 16, and (D) d _g = 4, d₀ = 100.
