Do cladistic and morphometric data capture common patterns of morphological disparity? [PDF]
, 2015 The distinctly non-random diversity of organismal form manifests itself in discrete clusters of taxa that share a common body plan. As a result, analyses of disparity require a scalable comparative framework.

A comparison of traditional and geometric morphometric techniques for the study of basicranial morphology in horses: a case study of the Araucanian horse from Colombia [PDF]
, 2020 Skull size and shape have been widely used to study domestic animal populations and breeds. Although several techniques have been proposed to quantify cranial form, few attempts have been made to compare the results obtained by di erent techniques. While

The use of novel phenotyping methods for validation of equine conformation scoring results
Animal, 2015 In this experiment, which is based on a cohort of 44 Lipizzan mares from the Austrian state stud farm of Piber, we present new statistical techniques for the analysis of shape and equine conformation using image data.

Effects of environmental perturbations during postnatal development on the phenotypic integration of the skull [PDF]
, 2011 Integration and modularity are fundamental determinants of how natural selection effects evolutionary change in complex multivariate traits. Interest in the study of the specific developmental basis of integration through experimental approaches is ...

Transfer of Qualitative and Quantitative Knowledge for Similar Batch Process Monitoring
IEEE Access, 2018 The operating conditions for industrial batch production often cover a wide range in order to produce different products. Inconsistent working conditions and recipes may change the data properties, but the generated batches may share similar mechanisms ...

The Application of the Geometric Morphometric Technique in Evaluating Sexual Dimorphism in the Body Shape of Aphaniops Hormozensis from Mehran and Shur Rivers (Hormozgan Basin) [PDF]
تاکسونومی و بیوسیستماتیک, 2020 During 2018-2019, to investigate the sexual dimorphism in the body shape and morphological variations of Aphaniops hormozensis inhabiting in Mehran and Shur rivers of the Hormozgan basin using the geometric morphometric method, 80 specimens were ...

A multilevel exploration of Avena strigosa diversity as a prelude to promote alternative crop
BMC Plant Biology, 2019 Background Sand oat (Avena strigosa Schreb.), one of the four cultivated species of the genus Avena, could be considered as another alternative crop. In gene banks 865 germplasm samples of this species have been preserved that have not been thoroughly ...

Calibration by correlation using metric embedding from non-metric similarities [PDF]
, 2013 This paper presents a new intrinsic calibration method that allows us to calibrate a generic single-view point camera just by waving it around. From the video sequence obtained while the camera undergoes random motion, we compute the pairwise time ...

Ratings of equine conformation – new insights provided by shape analysis using the example of Lipizzan stallions [PDF]
Archives Animal Breeding, 2016 The quality of individual ratings of conformation traits can commonly be evaluated by calculating inter-rater correlations and repeatability coefficients. We present an approach in which we associate the individual rating scores with the underlying horse
