Table 1.

Empirical false discovery rate and false non-discovery rate (10−4 unit) and their standard errors for the optimal false discovery rate procedure based on 100 simulations where the sample sizes are determined by Corollary 1 for the independent sequences with the same alternative odds ratio for fdr = 0.05 and fnr = 10−4.
