Comparative Evolutionary Paleobiology > me
 

I can't remember why I chose to take this class. Geometric Morphometrics pwns me. I have an exam tomorrow. Who knows the differences and advantages/disadvantages between BC, SBR, GLS, and RFTRA methods of superimposition and alignment? Or how about how Thin Plate Spline analysis provides some advantages over regular procrustes methods? How about contrasting the underlying foundations of parametric and numerical approaches to statistical inferences as they apply to testing the significance of size and shape comparisons? :S :S :S :S :S :S :1 :1 :1 :1 :8 :-\ :'( :'( :'( ??? ???

I'm only partially sure WTF this class is about, but totally certain that I will never use this again once I finish this god forsaken class

just seeing if that worked or not.. Sounds complex though. Google much?

I don't ------- know what you are talking about... I have an exam too next week on "Architecture des micro-ordinateur"... ("ordinateur" is "computer", the rest you can interpret it). I have to study asm IA-32, how RAM are made, registry in CPU and I have to learn a micro-processor architecture and how to make operation to them in hexadecimal or binary...

Not that hard seriously....

For your course is it bio course? Information on "Geometric Morphometrics" isn't very clear. They talk about cranial dunno what and math equation. For the "Thin plate Spline analysis" all you have to do is the double integral on the R² region of the partial derivate of x and y and ----....! ;)

Good luck with you exam man! Study suck! :7

i dont know who i dint understand more, the OP or the last poster. wow this ---- is complicated.

Re: Comparative Evolutionary Paleobiology > me
 

its the ------- terminology. Its like learning a new language, but more complicated :S

Re: Comparative Evolutionary Paleobiology > me
 

I was a bio major and I never heard of that ----, good luck man!

I have a test in fluids tomorrow :(
