Evaluating statistical methods using plasmode data sets in the age of massive public databases: an illustration using false discovery rates.
Plasmode is a term coined several years ago to describe data sets that are derived from real data but for which some truth is known. Omic techniques, most especially microarray and genomewide association studies, have catalyzed a new zeitgeist of data sharing that is making data and data sets public...
