aMean RPM R2 for the factors in the model estimated by the RPM in 100 data replicates

bPower, number of replicates for which the factor passed the threshold

cAvg(#FP), average number of observed "false positives" in the univariate analyses per replicate. For two-way analyses, estimated from 108 sampled pairs for the analyses of R2 and 107 sampled pairs for the analyses of p-values.

dE(#FP), expected number of false positives in the analysis of one replicate assuming the tests were independent.
