The goal of Momocs is to provide a complete, convenient, reproducible and open-source toolkit for 2D morphometrics.
It includes most common 2D morphometrics approaches on outlines, open outlines, configurations of landmarks, traditional morphometrics, and facilities for data preparation, manipulation and visualization with a consistent grammar throughout.
It allows reproducible, pipeable, complex morphometric analyses and other morphometrics approaches should be easy to plug in, or develop from, on top of this canvas.
It hinges on the core functions developed in the must-have book _[Morphometrics with R](http://www.springer.com/statistics/life+sciences,+medicine+%26+health/book/978-0-387-77789-4)_ by [Julien Claude](http://www.isem.univ-montp2.fr/recherche/equipes/biologie-du-developpement-et-evolution/personnel/claude-julien/) (2008).

### Installation
The last released version can be installed from [CRAN](https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=Momocs ) with:
```{r cran-installation, eval = FALSE}
install.packages("Momocs")
```
But I recommend using (and only support) the development version from GitHub with:
```{r gh-installation, eval = FALSE}
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("MomX/Momocs")
```

## Features
__Matrices of xy-coordinates__
* ~100 generic tools like centering, scaling, rotating, calculating area, perimeter, etc. Full list with `apropos("coo_")`
* generic plotters: `coo_plot` and `g` (work in progress)
__Data acquisition + Babel__
* Outline extraction from black mask/silhouettes `.jpgs`
* Landmark definition on outlines (`def_ldk` or via [StereoMorph](https://github.com/aaronolsen/StereoMorph))
* Open curves digitization with bezier curves (via [StereoMorph](https://github.com/aaronolsen/StereoMorph))
* Import/Export from/to `.nts`, `.tps`, `PAST`, `.txt`, etc.
__Outline analysis__
* Elliptical Fourier analysis (`efourier`)
* Radii variation (`rfourier`)
* Radii variation - curvilinear abscissa (`sfourier`)
* Tangent Angle Fourier analysis (`tfourier`)
__Open-outlines__
* Natural (raw) polynomials (`npoly`)
* Orthogonal (Legendre) polynomials (`opoly`)
* Discrete Cosinus Transform (`dfourier`)
* `bezier` core functions
__Configuration of landmarks__
* Full Generalized Procrustes Adjustment (`fgProcrustes`)
* Sliding semi-landmarks (`fgsProcrustes`)
__Traditional morphometrics and global shape descriptors__
* Facilities for multivariate analysis (see `flowers`)
* A long list of shape scalars (eg. `coo_eccentricity`, `coo_rectilinearity`, etc.)
__Data handling__
* Easy data manipulation with `filter`, `select`, `slice`, `mutate` and other verbs ala [dplyr](https://github.com/hadley/dplyr/)
* New verbs useful for morphometrics such as `combine` and `chop`, to handle several 2D views
* Permutation methods to resample data (`perm`, `breed`)
__Multivariate analysis__
* Mean shape (groupwise) calculations (`mshapes`)
* Principal component analysis (`PCA`)
* Multivariate analysis of variance (`MANOVA` + pairwise testing `MANOVA_PW`)
* Linear discriminant analysis and screening (`LDA`)
* Hierarchical clustering (`CLUST`)
* K-means (`KMEANS`)
__Graphical methods__
* Family pictures and quick inspection of whole datasets (`stack` and `panel`)
* Some `ggplot2` plots, when useful (and convet Momocs' objects into `data.frames it with `as_df`)
* Morphological spaces for PCA
* Thin plate splines and variation around deformation grids
__Misc__
* Datasets for all types of data (`apodemus`, `bot`, `chaff`, `charring`, `flower`, `hearts`, `molars`, `mosquito`, `mouse`, `oak`, `olea`, `shapes`, `trilo`, `wings`)
* [Shiny](http://shiny.rstudio.com/) demonstrators/helpers. See [Momecs](https://github.com/vbonhomme/Momecs/)
* [Online documentation](http://vbonhomme.github.io/Momocs/)

### Example
This is a basic example of a complete analysis doing: inspection, normalization of raw outlines, elliptical Fourier transforms, dimmensionality reduction and classification, using a single line.
```{r, eval=FALSE}
library(Momocs)
```
```{r}
devtools::load_all()
```
```{r, echo=FALSE}
options(Momocs_verbose = FALSE)
```
```{r example, message=FALSE, message=FALSE}
hearts %T>% # A toy dataset
stack() %>% # Take a family picture of raw outlines
fgProcrustes() %>% # Full generalized Procrustes alignment
coo_slide(ldk = 2) %T>% # Redefine a robust 1st point between the cheeks
stack() %>% # Another picture of aligned outlines
efourier(6, norm=FALSE) %>% # Elliptical Fourier Transforms
PCA() %T>% # Principal Component Analysis
plot_PCA(~aut) %>% # A PC1:2 plot
LDA(~aut) %>% # Linear Discriminant Analysis
plot_CV() # And the confusion matrix after leave one out cross validation
```
