Freely distributed software:

Morphometric software distributed via the Stony Brook Morphometrics www site.

tpsBias: Explore bias and error in estimating average shape.

tpsDig: Digitize coordinates of landmarks and capture outlines.

tpsPLS: Study covariation between a shape and a set of variables or between two shapes.

tpsPower: Estimates statistical power for testing difference between two mean shapes..

tpsRelw: Relative warps analysis.

tpsRegr: Multivariate regression of shape onto one or more independent variables.

tpsSmall: Test whether shape variation is small enough so that tangent space approximations can be used (almost always true)..

tpsSplin: Computes thin-plate splines.

tpsSuper: GLS superimposition, image unwarping and image averaging.

tpsSurfPlot: Utility to show results of tpsPower and tpsBias as surface plots (but just for triangles).

tpsTree: Fit shapes to a hierarchical tree.

tpsTri: Explore statistics of shape for triangles.

tpsUtil: Utility program useful when working with tps files..
