MorphoRegions - Analysis of Regionalization Patterns in Serially Homologous
Structures
Computes the optimal number of regions (or subdivisions)
and their position in serial structures without a priori
assumptions and to visualize the results. After reducing data
dimensionality with the built-in function for data ordination,
regions are fitted as segmented linear regressions along the
serial structure. Every region boundary position and increasing
number of regions are iteratively fitted and the best model
(number of regions and boundary positions) is selected with an
information criterion. This package expands on the previous
'regions' package (Jones et al. (2018)
<doi:10.1126/science.aar3126>) with improved computation and
more fitting and plotting options.
