Abstract

We develop a family of logarithmic time stepwise multiple test procedures, called the Quick procedures. Comparing with existing linear time and quadratic time procedures, the Quick procedure not only greatly simplifies and speeds up the decision process but also enhances the statistical power. An R package elitism to implement the newly proposed logarithmic time and linear time procedures is made available on CRAN.
