Comparison between Generalized Least Square Method and Quantile Regression in Dealing with Heteroscedastic Data
Abstract: Heteroscedastic data arise from a population whose sub-populations have different variabilities from one another. In presence of heteroscedasticity, the OLS estimators no longer remain the BLUEs, giving rise to wider acceptance regions and confidence intervals for the model parameters. The generalized least square technique, specifically weighted least square method is the conventional way of eliminating heteroscedasticity. However, quantile regression can also be used in dealing with this kind of data. …

Heterosis in Blackgram - History and Future Thrust
Abstract: AbstractHeterosis is the increase in vigor that is observed in progenies of matings of diverse individuals from different species, isolated populations or selected strains within species or populations. Heterosis has been of immense economic value in agriculture and has important implications regarding the fitness and fecundity of individuals in natural populations. Considering mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek), a pulse crop which is self-pollinated, little work has been done on heterosis. …

Speech Perception in Geriatric Population
Abstract: Ageing is one of the characteristic features seen in organisms of the animal kingdom; after birth via ageing first the development and maturation take place which when progresses with time results in degeneration and ultimately ends with the end of the life cycle of the organism. As humans are no different; our maturation phase starts right after birth, which results in complete maturation by the time humans reach adulthood [1]. …
