AI 中文摘要
我们表明,对于相关的双边高斯p值,本杰明尼-霍奇伯格程序可能无法将错误发现率(FDR)控制在其名义水平。我们构建了一个因子模型,在α = 0.01的水平下,严格的区间算术证明表明,对于所有足够多的假设,FDR > 0.0104。这反驳了一个二十年来被广泛认为正确的猜想。蒙特卡罗实验与理论结果一致。证明由GPT - 5.6 Pro获得并经作者仔细检查。
英文摘要
We show that the Benjamini--Hochberg procedure can fail to control the false discovery rate (FDR) at its nominal level for correlated two-sided Gaussian $p$-values. We construct a factor model for which, at level $α=0.01$, a rigorous interval-arithmetic certificate proves $FDR>0.0104$ for all sufficiently large numbers of hypotheses. This disproves a conjecture widely believed to be true for twenty years. Monte Carlo experiments are consistent with the theoretical result. The proof was obtained by GPT-5.6 Pro and carefully checked by the author.
