\name{vim.approxPval} \alias{vim.approxPval} \title{ Approximate P-Value Based Importance Measure } \description{ Computes the importances based on an approximation to a t- or F-distribution. } \usage{ vim.approxPval(object, version = 1, adjust = "bonferroni") } \arguments{ \item{object}{an object of class \code{logicFS} which contains the values of standardized importances. Only in the linear regression case, the importances in \code{object} are allowed to be non-standardized. } \item{version}{either \code{1} or \code{2}. If \code{1}, then the importance measure is computed by 1 - padj, where padj is the adjusted p-value. If \code{2}, the importance measure is determined by -log10(padj), where a raw p-value equal to 0 is set to 1 / (10 * \code{n.perm}) to avoid infinitive importances. } \item{adjust}{character vector naming the method with which the raw permutation based p-values are adjusted for multiplicity. If \code{"qvalue"}, the function \code{qvalue.cal} from the package \code{siggenes} is used to compute q-values. Otherwise, \code{p.adjust} is used to adjust for multiple comparisons. See \code{p.adjust} for all other possible specifications of \code{adjust}. If \code{"none"}, the raw p-values will be used. } } \value{ An object of class \code{logicFS} containing the same object as \code{object} except for \item{vim}{the values of the importance measure based on an approximation to the t- or F-distribution,} \item{measure}{the name of the used importance measure,} \item{threshold}{0.95 if \code{version = 1}, and -log10(0.05) if \code{version = 2}.} } \references{ Schwender, H., Ruczinski, I., Ickstadt, K.
