Hi,
You could use the sliding landmarks routine for analysis. Since your
curves are midline profiles, it seems that you're actually dealing
with 2D curves, in which case the tps series would do the job.

Cheers,

Hi All,

I would like to compare the profiles of 3D curves. These curves are
actually the midline profiles from the skulls of various mice. The
ultimate goal is to see whether there is any significant difference in
the curvature of the nasal bone or the height of the nasal bridge.

The outline softwares I have seen so far wants the curves to be closed.
Unfortunately these are open curves.

Does anyone have a tool/method suggestion?
Thanks,
M
