Look up heterogeneity or heterogeneous in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
Heterogeneity is a diverseness of constituent structure.
Heterogeneity or heterogeneous may also refer to:
Data analysis
[edit]- Heterogeneity in statistics
- Heterogeneity in economics
- Study heterogeneity, a concept in statistics
- Heterogeneous relation
Biology and medicine
[edit]- Heterogeneous conditions in medicine are those conditions which have several causes/etiologies
- A heterogeneous taxon, a taxon that contains a great variety of individuals or sub-taxa; usually this implies that the taxon is an artificial grouping
- Genetic heterogeneity, multiple origins causing the same disorder in different individuals.
- Allelic heterogeneity, different mutations at the same locus causing the same disorder.
Chemistry
[edit]- A heterogeneous reaction, a reaction in chemical kinetics that takes place at the interface of two or more phases, i.e. between a solid and a gas, a liquid and a gas, or a solid and a liquid
- A heterogeneous catalysis, one in which the catalyst is in a different phase from the substrate
Ecology
[edit]- Heterogeneity in landscape ecology, the measure of how different parts of a landscape are from one another.
Computer science
[edit]- Heterogeneous computing, electronic systems that utilize a variety of different types of computational units
- Semantic heterogeneity, where there are differences in meaning and interpretation across data sources and datasets
- A data resource with multiple types of formats.
