Human calcaneal variation relative to subsistence strategy, activity level, and footwear
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Lower limb cortical and trabecular bone varies with human behavior, leading to suggestions that activity level decreases have contributed to a more gracile skeleton.

A contribution to the knowledge of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) stem shape
Journal of Forest Science, 2004 This is a study on the evaluation of stem shape in Scots pine. The experiments were carried out on 430 stems without bark, taken from 30 fully analysed sample trees that grew in 5 different locations in the Czech Republic. Generalized Procrustes analysis

Intra- and Interspecific Interactions as Proximate Determinants of Sexual Dimorphism and Allometric Trajectories in the Bottlenose Dolphin Tursiops truncatus (Cetacea, Odontoceti, Delphinidae). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Feeding adaptation, social behaviour, and interspecific interactions related to sexual dimorphism and allometric growth are particularly challenging to be investigated in the high sexual monomorphic Delphinidae.

COMPARISON OF UNSUPERVISED VEGETATION CLASSIFICATION METHODS FROM VHR IMAGES AFTER SHADOWS REMOVAL BY INNOVATIVE ALGORITHMS [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2015 The recognition of vegetation by the analysis of very high resolution (VHR) aerial images provides meaningful information about environmental features; nevertheless, VHR images frequently contain shadows that generate significant problems for the ...

The Hermitian -Conjugate Generalized Procrustes Problem
Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2013 We consider the Hermitian -conjugate generalized Procrustes problem to find Hermitian -conjugate matrix such that is minimum, where , , , and (, ) are given complex matrices, and and are positive integers. The expression of the solution to Hermitian

Procrustes Problems for General, Triangular, and Symmetric Toeplitz Matrices
Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2013 The Toeplitz Procrustes problems are the least squares problems for the matrix equation AX=B over some Toeplitz matrix sets. In this paper the necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained about the existence and uniqueness for the solutions of the ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Invasive gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) have replaced the native red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) across much of Great Britain over the last century. Several factors have been proposed to underlie this replacement, but here we investigated the potential for dietary competition in which gray squirrels have better feeding performance than ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The oval window (OW) is an opening connecting the inner and middle ear. Its area has been shown to consistently scale with body mass (BM) in primates, and has been used alongside semi‐circular canal (SCC) size to differentiate Homo sapiens and fossil hominins, including Paranthropus robustus.
