contents We consider the multiple hypothesis testing (MHT) problem over the joint domain formed by a graph and a measure space. On each sample point of this joint domain, we assign a hypothesis test and a corresponding $p$-value. The goal is to make decisions for all hypotheses simultaneously, using all available $p$-values. In practice, this problem resembles the detection problem over a sensor network during a period of time. To solve this problem, we extend the traditional two-groups model such that the prior probability of the null hypothesis and the alternative distribution of $p$-values can be inhomogeneous over the joint domain. We model the inhomogeneity via a generalized graph signal. This more flexible statistical model yields a more powerful detection strategy by leveraging the information from the joint domain.
