Phylogenetic morphometrics (II): algorithms for landmark optimization
@article{Goloboff2011PhylogeneticM, title={Phylogenetic morphometrics (II): algorithms for landmark optimization}, author={P. Goloboff and S. Catalano}, journal={Cladistics}, year={2011}, volume={27} }
This paper describes algorithms for optimizing two‐ or three‐dimensional landmark data onto trees directly. The method is based on a first approximation using grids, and subsequent iterative refinement of the initial point estimates. Details of the implementation are discussed, as well as an empirical example.
