Dear morphometricians,
is there any measure expressing how angular is an object in its shape? I am
not aware of any, but at the same time this is exactly what one would
expect to find in the geometric morphometrics toolkit.
Determination keys sometimes say "skull has more angular shape",
Merriam-Webster dictionary gives the sentence "he has an angular face" as
an example for the word "angular" and everyone can easily imagine what it
means. But how to quantify the angularity of shape?
Best regards,
Ondrej
