• geomorph: an r package for the collection and analysis of geometric morphometric shape data (2013, methodology): “Finally, because R is a statistical computing language, the function arrayspecs can be used to reformat the shape data to a matrix of specimens by variables, so that other statistical routines in R may be utilized.”
• Accounting for differences in element size and homogeneity when comparing Finite Element models: Armadillos as a case study (2016, background): “In the last decade, researchers have used virtual reconstruction of vertebrate structures in order to perform biomechanical comparisons among taxa (Gunz et al., 2009; Doyle et al., 2009; Degrange et al., 2010; Fletcher et al., 2010; Attard et al., 2014; Figueirido et al., 2014; Neenan et al., 2014).”
• A field comes of age: geometric morphometrics in the 21 st century (2013, background): “A third alternative extends the logic of semilandmarks to the estimation of missing landmarks (Bookstein et al., 1999; Gunz et al., 2009).”
• Semilandmarks: a method for quantifying curves and surfaces (2013, methodology): “…that are recorded in the vicinity of the missing part such that reconstruction of a small defect with many adjacent coordinates will have greater accuracy (Gunz et al., 2009a; Grine et al., 2010; Weber at al., 2012; Benazzi et al., 2011a; Weber and Bookstein, 2011; Neubauer et al., 2012).”
• Combining Geometric Morphometrics and Finite Element Analysis with Evolutionary Modeling: Towards a Synthesis (2016, unknown): “For example, landmarks and thin-plate splines (TPS) can be used to reconstruct missing features, retrodeform taphonomically altered fossil specimens, and fill in holes to create water-tight FE models (e.g., Angielczyk and Sheets, 2007; Gunz et al., 2009; Tallman et al., 2014).”
