Results from our analysis of lung DNA methylation data from Nicodemus-Johnson et al. (2016). (a) The number of asthma-related CpGs at a given Inline graphic-value cut-off using our shrinkage-corrected estimator (solid line), as well as the estimators proposed in Lee et al. (2017) (dot-dashed line), Wang et al. (2017) (dotted line) and Leek & Storey (2008) (dashed line). (b) The Inline graphic components of Inline graphic (Inline graphic) and Inline graphic (Inline graphic) as a function of Inline graphic. The dashed line is the 0.95 quantile of the Inline graphic distribution, where Inline graphic is defined such that Inline graphic converges to a chi-squared random variable with Inline graphic degrees of freedom under the null hypothesis from Theorem 3.
