Description: Aiming to provide a complete and convenient toolkit for morphometrics, Momocs is
intended for scientists interested in describing quantitatively the shape, and its
variations, of the objects they study. In the last decade, R has become the
open-source lingua franca for statistics, and morphometrics known its so-called
'revolution'. Nevertheless, morphometric analyses still have to be carried out
using various software packages, for which source code is mostly unavailable or
copyrighted. Moreover, existing software packages cannot be extended and their
bugs are hard to detect and thus correct. This situation is detrimental to
morphometrics; time is wasted, analyses are restricted to available methods, and
last but not least, are poorly reproducible. This impedes collaborative effort
both in software development and in morphometric studies. By gathering the common
morphometric approaches in an open-source environment and welcoming
contributions, Momocs is an (work-in-progress) attempt to solve this twofold
problem and to push morphometrics one step further. It hinges on the core
functions published in the book Morphometrics using R (Claude, 2008), but has
been further extended to allow other shape description systems. So far,
'revolution'. Nevertheless, morphometric analyses still have to be carried out using

configurations of landmarks, outlines and open outline analyses, along with some
facilities for traditional morphometrics have been implemented. Prior to
analysis, Momocs can be used to acquire and manipulate data or to import/export
from/to other formats. Momocs also has the facility for a wide range of
multivariate analyses and production of the companion graphics. Thus a researcher
will find that just a few lines of code will provide initial results, but the
methods implemented can be finely tuned and extended according to the user's
needs.
