Description

Model-based clustering of morphological data using maximum likelihood methods with Bayesian Information Criterion for model selection, testing 1-9 cluster models to determine optimal population structure.

Typical Equipment

  • R software
  • Mclust procedure

Output Measurements

  • cluster assignments
  • posterior probabilities
  • BIC scores
