Comparing beta distribution with Fisher's test and Z score test.

<p>Each plot contains an enlarged version around p-value . Notice that the in these magnified plots the axis is , for exact powers of take less space in the labels then string of 9 s.</p

Distribution of p-values (for the hypothesis tests discussed) and of computed with the model.

<p>The first row depicts the truly different samples (). The bottom row refers to the control samples. For all the plots .</p

ROC curves for the three methods under comparison.

<p>Each point in the ROC curve is obtained by choosing a different threshold for calling differential methylation. For the Z score test and the Fisher's test the p-values are: . For the Beta distributions the threshold probabilities are: . TPR means true positive rate; FPR means false positive rate.</p
