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, | ||

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. | ||
