BACKGROUND: Permutation testing is a robust and popular approach for significance
testing in genomic research, which has the broad advantage of estimating
significance non-parametrically, thereby safe guarding against inflated type I
error rates. However, the computational efficiency remains a challenging issue
that limits its wide application, particularly in genome-wide association studies
(GWAS). Because of this, adaptive permutation strategies can be employed to make
permutation approaches feasible. While these approaches have been used in
practice, there is little research into the statistical properties of these
approaches, and little guidance into the proper application of such a strategy
for accurate p-value estimation at the GWAS level. METHODS: In this work, we
advocate an adaptive permutation procedure that is statistically valid as well as
computationally feasible in GWAS. We perform extensive simulation experiments to
evaluate the robustness of the approach to violations of modeling assumptions and
compare the power of the adaptive approach versus standard approaches. We also
evaluate the parameter choices in implementing the adaptive permutation approach
to provide guidance on proper implementation in real studies. Additionally, we
provide an example of the application of adaptive permutation testing on real
data. RESULTS: The results provide sufficient evidence that the adaptive test is
robust to violations of modeling assumptions. In addition, even when modeling
assumptions are correct, the power achieved by adaptive permutation is identical
to the parametric approach over a range of significance thresholds and effect
sizes under the alternative. A framework for proper implementation of the
adaptive procedure is also generated. CONCLUSIONS: While the adaptive permutation
approach presented here is not novel, the current study provides evidence of the
validity of the approach, and importantly provides guidance on the proper
implementation of such a strategy. Additionally, tools are made available to aid
investigators in implementing these approaches.
