CAC: calculate common allometric component

In Morpho: Calculations and Visualisations Related to Geometric Morphometrics

calculate common allometric component

Description

calculate common allometric component

Usage

CAC(x, size, groups = NULL, log = FALSE)

Arguments

x	datamatrix (e.g. with PC-scores) or 3D-array with landmark coordinates
size	vector with Centroid sizes
groups	grouping variable
log	logical: use log(size)

Value

CACscores	common allometric component scores
CAC	common allometric component
x	(group-) centered data
sc	CAC reprojected into original space by applying CAC %*% x
RSCscores	residual shape component scores
RSC	residual shape components
gmeans	groupmeans
CS	the centroid sizes (log transformed if log = TRUE)

Examples

data(boneData)
proc <- procSym(boneLM)
pop.sex <- name2factor(boneLM,which=3:4)
cac <- CAC(proc$rotated,proc$size,pop.sex)
plot(cac$CACscores,cac$size)#plot scores against Centroid size
cor.test(cac$CACscores,cac$size)#check for correlation
#visualize differences between large and small on the sample's consensus
## Not run: 
large <- restoreShapes(max(cac$CACscores),cac$CAC,proc$mshape)
small <- restoreShapes(min(cac$CACscores),cac$CAC,proc$mshape)
deformGrid3d(small,large,ngrid=0)

## End(Not run)
