heterogeneous

Examples of heterogeneous in the following topics:

• Homogeneity and Heterogeneity

• Populations

  • If different sub-populations have different properties, so that the overall population is heterogeneous, the properties and responses of the overall population can often be better understood if the population is first separated into distinct sub-populations.

• Checking the Model and Assumptions

  • In order to determine for heterogeneous error variance, or when a pattern of residuals violates model assumptions of homoscedasticity (error is equally variable around the 'best-fitting line' for all points of x), it is prudent to look for a "fanning effect" between residual error and predicted values.

• Model Assumptions

  • In order to determine for heterogeneous error variance, or when a pattern of residuals violates model assumptions of homoscedasticity (error is equally variable around the 'best-fitting line' for all points of $x$), it is prudent to look for a "fanning effect" between residual error and predicted values.
