[MORPHMET] tpsDig2 update to version 2.26

2016-04-14 Thread F. James Rohlf
I have just uploaded version 2.26 of tpsDig2 to the
http://life.bio.sunysb.edu/morph server. This fixes some problems and
suggestions reported by Miriam Zelditch. There is now an option on the
Options menu so that the current zoom will be kept when moving from one
specimen to another. The 'go to specimen' window now allows for files with
of up to 9 specimens - I assume that will be large enough for most
users. Please let me know of other changes that would make using the program
easier.

 

Thanks again, Miriam!

[MORPHMET] An R tool to align portions of a 3D model virtually divided

2016-04-14 Thread antonio.profico

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.

 

For details please contact: antonio.prof...@uniroma1.it

 

Best,

 

Antonio
