Abstract:This work proposes a functional data analysis (FDA) approach for morphometrics in classifying three shrew species (S. murinus, C. monticola and C. malayana) from Peninsular Malaysia. Functional data geometric morphometrics (FDGM) for 2D landmark data is introduced and its performance is compared with classical geometric morphometrics (GM). The FDGM approach converts 2D landmark data into continuous curves, which are then represented as linear combinations of basis functions. The landmark data was obtained from… Show more
