Dear morphometricians,
I am writing to ask if you would to be so kind to support anonymously a research of the Palaeoanthropology and Bio-archaeology laboratory in Sapienza University in Rome directed by Prof. Giorgio Manzi. We are developing an R tool useful as first step in the digital reconstruction procedures through a landmark-based approach. In this framework, we are interested to compare the efficiency of our R tool (a landmark-based approach) compared to a virtual alignment performed by expert in the field without the aid of reference material (hence no overlapping of transparent reference model, no landmark alignment, etc…) In fact, in our case we are interested in aligning two portions of a skull virtually divided, whose margins were partly removed to simulate natural breakage, hence there is no surface of contact between the two halves. It would be great to have a comparison sample of alignment performed fully manually in virtual environment without any type of reference model normally used. At the end of this project I would be very happy to share with you the R code for future applications and methodological improvements. The test can be performed either anonymously or non-anonymously, in both cases you will be acknowledged in the paper.
