Preface
A growth curve is an empirical model of the evolution of certain characteristic of interest over time. Growth curve models are widely studied in different branches of science. The present volume on growth curve model (GCM) is a culmination of the talks given at the workshop on the topic held during 23–24 February 2017 at the Indian Statistical Institute, Giridih, where growth experiments are going on in the farmland. Professor Jayanta K. Ghosh, an eminent academician and a former director of the Indian Statistical Institute, passed away on September 30, 2017. He was one of the inspiring forces in conducting growth experiments in Giridih over years. The present volume is dedicated to his memory. This workshop proceeding ‘Advances in Growth Curve and Structural Equation Modeling: Proceedings 2017—Topics from the Indian Statistical Institute’ presents some ideas about the research works, both theoretical and applied, on growth curve models, which are going on by the scientists of Ind
