Shape Analysis of Outlines
Description
Momocs is intended to ease and popularize shape analysis
of outlines (especially using elliptical Fourier analysis). It
mostly hinges on the functions developed in Morphometrics with
R (Claude, 2008). From outline extraction of images and
elliptical Fourier calculation to multivariate analysis and the
visualization of transformations within the morphological
space, Momocs provides a complete and convenient toolkit to
specialists within every field that are, or may be, interested
in morphological comparisons of outlines.
