T2 mouse vertabrae data


Description

T2 mouse vertebrae data - 6 landmarks in 2 dimensions, in 3 groups (30 Control, 23 Large, 23 Small mice). The 6 landmarks are obtained using a semi-automatic method at points of high curvature. This particular strain of mice is the ‘QE’ strain. In addition pseudo-landmarks are given around each outlines.

Usage

data(mice)

Format

mice$x : An array of dimension 6 x 2 x 76 of the two dimensional co-ordinates of 6 landmarks for each of the 76 mice.

mice$group : Group labels. "c" Control, "l" Large, "s" Small mice

mice$outlines : An array of dimension 60 x 2 x 76 containing the 6 landmarks and 54 pseudo-landmarks, with 9 pseudo-landmarks approximately equally spaced between each pair of landmarks.
