An evaluation of the genome-wide false positive rates of common methods for identifying differentially methylated regions using illumina methylation arrays

Differentially methylated regions (DMRs) are genomic regions with specific methylation patterns across multiple loci that are associated with a phenotype. We examined the genome-wide false positive (GFP) rates of five widely used DMR methods: comb-p, Bumphunter, DMRcate, mCSEA and coMethDMR using bo...
