Details

We are providing functions and not the resulting graphs directly because this way you have additional examples: You can look at the function body with body and see how the graph is built.

list("BonferroniHolm")

Returns a graph that represents a Bonferroni-Holm adjustment. The result is a complete graph, where all nodes have the same weights and each edge weight is \(\frac{1}{n-1}\).

list("BretzEtAl2011")

Graph in figure 2 from Bretz et al. See references (Bretz et al. 2011).

list("HommelEtAl2007")

Graph from Hommel et al. See references (Hommel et al. 2007).

list("parallelGatekeeping")

Graph for parallel gatekeeping. See references (Dmitrienko et al. 2003).

list("improvedParallelGatekeeping")

Graph for improved parallel gatekeeping. See references (Hommel et al. 2007).

list("HungEtWang2010")

Graph from Hung et Wang. See references (Hung et Wang 2010).

list("MaurerEtAl1995")

Graph from Maurer et al. See references (Maurer et al. 1995).

list("cycleGraph")

Cycle graph. The weight weights[i] specifies the edge weight from node \(i\) to node \(i+1\) for \(i=1,\ldots,n-1\) and weight[n] from node \(n\) to node 1.

list("improvedFallbackI")

Graph for the improved Fallback Procedure by Wiens & Dmitrienko. See references (Wiens et Dmitrienko 2005).

list("improvedFallbackII")

Graph for the improved Fallback Procedure by Hommel & Bretz. See references (Hommel et Bretz 2008).

list("Ferber2011")

Graph from Ferber et al. See references (Ferber et al. 2011).

list("FerberTimeDose2011")

Graph from Ferber et al. See references (Ferber et al. 2011).

list("Entangled1Maurer2012")

Entangled graph from Maurer et al. TODO: Add references as soon as they are available.
