A Fast Randomisation Test for Rule Significance
Randomisation is a method to test the statistical significance of a symbolic rule; it is, however, very expensive. In this paper we present a sequential randomisation test which d...

How experimental algorithmics can benefit from Mayo's extensions to Neyman-Pearson theory of testing
Although theoretical results for several algorithms in many application domains were presented during the last decades, not all algorithms can be analyzed fully theoretically. Exp...

A method for computing the overall statistical significance of a treatment effect among a group of genes
Background: In studies that use DNA arrays to assess changes in gene expression, our goal is to evaluate the statistical significance of treatments on sets of genes. Genes can be ...

On the use of resampling tests for evaluating statistical significance of binding-site co-occurrence
Background: In eukaryotes, most DNA-binding proteins exert their action as members of large effector complexes. The presence of these complexes are revealed in high-throughput gen...
