In this paper, we discuss two typical multivariate multiple comparisons procedures among mean vectors: that is, pairwise comparisons and comparisons with a control. In traditional multivariate analysis, these multivariate multiple comparisons procedures are constructed based on Hotelling’s T 2 statistic in multivariate normal populations. However, in high-dimensional settings, such when the dimensions exceed total sample sizes, these methods cannot be applied. In such cases, Takahashi et al. (2013) proposed asymptotically conservative simultaneous confidence intervals under the assumption of homogeneity of variance-covariance matrices across groups. Unfortunately, these simultaneous confidence intervals are not asymptotically conservative when this assumption is violated. Motivated by this point, we newly obtain asymptotically conservative confidence intervals based on L 2 -type statistic without assuming that the variance-covariance matrices are homogeneous across groups. Empirical results indicate that the proposed simultaneous confidence intervals outperform existing procedures.
