The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Evolution and development of shape: integrating quantitative approaches (2010, background): “and therefore the results of such analyses need to be interpreted with some cautio”
Semilandmarks: a method for quantifying curves and surfaces (2013, methodology): “The obvious advantage of such a semi-automated data collection is the possibility to process large sample sizes in a fairly short amount of time (Polly, 2008; Klingenberg, 2008).”
Analyzing Fluctuating Asymmetry with Geometric Morphometrics: Concepts, Methods, and Applications (2015, background): “Note that, even though some authors have claimed that such methods are “homology-free” [285], all these approaches are based in one way or another on a one-to-one correspondence of points on the outline or surface, which is the basis for the computations of mutual fit or difference between shapes [2”
