In statistics, the false discovery rate (FDR) is a method of conceptualizing the rate of type I errors in null hypothesis testing when conducting multiple comparisons. FDR-controlling procedures are designed to control the FDR, which is the expected proportion of "discoveries" that are false. Equivalently, the FDR is the expected ratio of the number of false positive classifications to the total number of positive classifications. The total number of rejections of the null include both the number of false positives (FP) and true positives (TP). Simply put, FDR = FP /. FDR-controlling procedures provide less stringent control of Type I errors compared to familywise error rate (FWER) controlling procedures, which control the probability of at least one Type I error. Thus, FDR-controlling procedures have greater power, at the cost of increased numbers of Type I errors.
