Sequential FDR method that controls the FDR and mFDR in an online manner.
SeqFDR(m, FDR, a=2, R)The number of current the test.
FDR level.
A constant.
All of the decisions from the tests that have already been performed.
The value of alpha.
We used the LOND (significance Levels based On Number of Discoveries) algorithm that controls FDR in an online manner (Javanmard and Montanari, 2015). The significance level (i.e., the type I error rate) is dynamic and based on the total number of discoveries made so far.
