Dear Miranda,
as far as I know, Mlogika cannot deal with missing landmarks. Almost
certainly, it cannot do a GPA with missing landmarks. Morpheus can do it
and can estimate them. If your estimates are accurate, you could then load
the data in Mlogika and do your analysis/visualization there.

If you follow the link in my signature leading to Sarah Elton's website,
you'll find a few papers where we describe how we did this. One should be
the Biol J Linn Soc article on guenons (in the Appendix).
After the GPA, Morpheus commands are (more or less):
list pmiss impute
set pmiss name_of_option on_off etc.
pmiss impute

Good luck

Andrea

Dear All,

I am having trouble uploading autoplot data into Morphologika, and I washoping someone out there could help. I used the autoplot function of aMicroScribe to take data points every 5mm. However, because some of thespecimens are larger than others, they do not all have the same numberof data points. A colleague told me that I might be able to substitutethe letter X for missing data, but I have not been able to get the fileto upload. Does anyone know if there is a certain way to format the X'sto make this work?


Thank You,
Miranda Utzinger
