Geometric Morphometrics

The Encyclopedia of Archaeological Sciences, 2018
Geometric morphometrics are a class of multivariate methods for measuring and analyzing the shapes of objects. Geometric morphometrics are distinctive in that they use Cartesian coordinates (x, y, z) of landmark points in place of linear measurements as ...

Phylogeny of the superfamily Gelechioidea (Lepidoptera: Obtectomera), with an exploratory application on geometric morphometrics

, 2020
The superfamily Gelechioidea (Lepidoptera: Obtectomera) has a high species diversity. It consists of more than 18,400 described species and has a global distribution. Among it, large numbers of species were reported to be economically important to people'

Geometric morphometrics on juvenile crania: Exploring age and sex variation in an Australian population.

Forensic Science International, 2019
For medico-legal forensic practitioners the identification of unknown remains is an important part of any investigation, often predicated on having accurate estimations of age and sex. In considering the specific skeletal elements available to facilitate

Geometric morphometric analysis of mandibular ramus flexure

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2005
AbstractMany characteristics of the human skeleton can only be assessed morphologically, which may be problematic due to factors such as interobserver error and difficulties with standardization. Flexure of the mandibular ramus is one of these traits, and various researchers found widely differing results using this morphological feature.

Geometric morphometric contribution to septal deviation analysis

Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2019
The nasal septum presents inter-individual conformational variations. The objectives of this study were to establish a validated protocol for nasal septum analysis using geometric morphometrics (GM) to establish a classification of septal deviations (SD).This was a retrospective study including two groups of patients: patients operated on by ...

Classifying camel breeds using geometric morphometrics: A case study in Kuwait

, 2019
In this study, we examine the utility of image-based geometric morphometrics in classifying camel breeds. As a case study, we explore morphometric variation of six common Arabian Peninsula camel breeds (“Mezayen” breeds), traditionally named according to

Geometric morphometrics of clypeasteroids

2014
The complex skeleton of echinoids shows a close relationship between structure and function that makes this clade a textbook example for the analysis of functional morphology. Clypeasteroids (“sand dollars”) are a group of irregular echinoids with flat body shape, which live as detritus feeders on marine softground.

Exploring Eucladoceros Ecomorphology Using Geometric Morphometrics

The Anatomical Record, 2014
ABSTRACTAn increasingly common method for reconstructing paleoenvironmental parameters of hominin sites is ecological functional morphology (ecomorphology). This study provides a geometric morphometric study of cervid rearlimb morphology as it relates to phylogeny, size, and ecomorphology. These methods are then applied to an extinct Pleistocene cervid,
