Thirty years of geometric morphometrics: Achievements, challenges, and the ongoing quest for biological meaningfulness

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Biological Anthropology, 2022
The foundations of geometric morphometrics were worked out about 30 years ago and have continually been refined and extended. What has remained as a central thrust and source of debate in the morphometrics community is the shared goal of meaningful ...

DeepWings©: Automatic Wing Geometric Morphometrics Classification of Honey Bee (Apis mellifera) Subspecies Using Deep Learning for Detecting Landmarks

open access: yesBig Data and Cognitive Computing, 2022
Honey bee classification by wing geometric morphometrics entails the first step of manual annotation of 19 landmarks in the forewing vein junctions. This is a time-consuming and error-prone endeavor, with implications for classification accuracy. Herein,

Geometric morphometrics versus DNA barcoding for the identification of malaria vectors Anopheles dirus and An. baimaii in the Thai-Cambodia border

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Anopheles (Cellia) dirus Peyton & Harrison and Anopheles baimaii Sallum & Peyton are sibling species within the Dirus complex belonging to the Leucosphyrus group, and have been incriminated as primary vectors of malaria in Thailand. In the present study,

Asymmetry of Caddo Ceramics from the Washington Square Mound Site: An Exploratory Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
While pursuing a study of 3D geometric morphometrics for ceramic burial vessels that often articulate with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) from the ancestral Caddo region, there have been no shortage of potentially ...

Biometry traits and geometric morphometrics in sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) from different farming systems

open access: yesItalian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
The effect of the farming system on biometry traits and dressing out yield were inves- tigated in market-size European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) cultured extensively or intensively in sea cages or land-based basins.

Tools for quantitative form description : an evaluation of different software packages for semi-landmark analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The challenging complexity of biological structures has led to the development of several methods for quantitative analyses of form. Bones are shaped by the interaction of historical (phylogenetic), structural, and functional constrains.
