Generalized procrustes analysis (GPA) as a tool to discriminate among sheep breeds [PDF]

open access: goldArchives Animal Breeding, 2014
Abstract. Forty male lambs of five Southern Spanish breeds were used to study the effects of the breed in their sensorial characteristics. The used breeds were: Segureña, Spanish Merino, Grazalema Merino, Churra Lebrijana and Montesina breeds. Milk lambs were slaughtered at 12 kg of live weight.

Mandibular Shape Variation, Allometry and Modularity in Adult Mesocephalic Dogs (Canis lupus familiaris): Insights into Morphological Integration and Animal Anatomy [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals
The mandible of domestic dogs represents a key structure in veterinary anatomy. This study tested the hypothesis that mandibular shape variation in adult mesocephalic dogs follows a non-random modular pattern with limited allometric influence. A total of

Generalized Procrustes Analysis

open access: closedPsychometrika, 1975
Suppose Pi(i) (i = 1, 2, ..., m, j = 1, 2, ..., n) give the locations of mn points in p-dimensional space. Collectively these may be regarded as m configurations, or scalings, each of n points in p-dimensions. The problem is investigated of translating, rotating, reflecting and scaling the m configurations to minimize the goodness-of-fit criterion Σi ...

Generalizing Procrustes Analysis for Better Bilingual Dictionary Induction [PDF]

open access: green, 2018
Most recent approaches to bilingual dictionary induction find a linear alignment between the word vector spaces of two languages. We show that projecting the two languages onto a third, latent space, rather than directly onto each other, while equivalent in terms of expressivity, makes it easier to learn approximate alignments.

A SIMPLE ALTERNATIVE TO GENERALIZED PROCRUSTES ANALYSIS: APPLICATION TO SENSORY PROFILING DATA [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of Sensory Studies, 1999
A statistical method for analyzing sensory profiling data obtained by means of fixed vocabulary or free choice profiling is discussed. The most interesting feature of this method is that it involves only simple statistical treatment and can therefore be performed using standard software packages.

Efficient tree-structured SfM by RANSAC generalized Procrustes analysis

open access: greenComputer Vision and Image Understanding, 2017
A tree-structured SfM by RANSAC generalized Procrustes analysis (RGPA) is proposed.RGPA is able to reliably merge multiple structures at a time and remove outliers.Quick and robust bottom-up reconstruction is achieved with a shallow tree. This paper proposes a tree-structured structure-from-motion (SfM) method that recovers 3D scene structures and ...

Sexual Monomorphism and Size‐Related Shape Change in the Beak of the Greater Flamingo (Phoenicopterus roseus)

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science
Background The avian beak is a functionally important structure shaped by ecological demands. In highly specialized filter‐feeders such as flamingos, subtle variation in beak size and shape may influence feeding performance.

A sensory analysis of butter cookies: An application of generalized procrustes analysis [PDF]

open access: gold, 1994
Executive Summary: 1. A sensory analysis is one of the first steps in product development in the food industry. A thorough analysis of the results from such an analysis may give important input to the development process. 2. A sensory analysis on butter cookies is conducted in order to evaluate if some butter may be replaced by vegetable fat without a ...
