External Long Bone Morphology as a Tool for Sex Identification in Great Apes: The Case of the Humerus and Femur Objectives Sexual dimorphism in primates reflects evolutionary, ecological, and social pressures and varies widely across species, complicating its analysis. This study builds on previous research t.....

🚨 New paper out!

This work combines 3D geometric morphometrics, multivariate statistics, and machine learning to assess sexual dimorphism in great ape long bones — aiming to classify unsexed skeletal remains and reveal patterns relevant to human evolution.
