Investigating differential abundance methods in microbiome data: A benchmark study
Fig 8
FDR of each differential abundance method for each dataset considered in the comparison in simulations with reduced variability.
In each set of boxes corresponding to the dataset, different percentages (P) of simulated DA features are on rows, while different sample size (SS) values are on columns. The FDR values are averaged over the 50 simulations and the bars show the standard error. The difference in the mean FDR between the scenario with reduced variability and the main scenario with simulated DA features is shown at the beginning of the bars.
