To compute the symmetry and asymmetry components of the shape space, it is useful to distinguish the landmarks in the centre of rotation (or on the axis of rotation for 3D data) from the landmarks in each sector.
We synthesized 5 test faces at random moving along the first 15 components of both the shape and appearance models.
This would be the case, for example, of the center v of a small component in the shape of a star, where v would have maximum global betweenness while its central role is applied only to a very small portion of the overall network.
Principal component analysis (PCA) of the shape dynamics shows that forward motion is enhanced in cells aligned parallel to the nanoridges, whereas turning motion is enhanced for cells aligned perpendicular to the nanoridges.
Altogether, this would suggest a genetic component of the elongated body shape characteristic of Ugandan crater lake cichlids.
The Hybrid descriptor combines the 166 bits of the MACCS key descriptor with the 12 components of the Ultrafast shape descriptor and four extra components from the fourth moment, to form a descriptor of length 182.
The authors have formulated their solution in a way that would allow the components of the segmented shape to merge, split or vanish without changing the genus of the initial deformable model.
By multiplying all components of the modal shape by the factor σ, we defined the entire vector field: δ i = σ δ i,mode, where i = (x, y, z).
Both cellular and matrix components of the niche shape HPC activation and fate, and HPCs, in turn, influence myofibroblasts and inflammatory cells.
Keren et al. 18 showed that a low number of components described the shape variability of migrating keratocytes within a population.
