Pairwise Euclidean distance comparisons between each specimen and the atlas, Arctictis binturong (MNHN 1936-1529) measured across 321 axes. Distances are shown for the manual landmark data and “Aligned-only” meshes using Deterministic Atlas Analysis (DAA) with a kernel width of (a) 40.0 mm producing 45 control points, (b) a kernel width of 20.0 mm producing 270 control points, and (c) a kernel width of 10.0 mm producing 1,782 control points. Similarly, distances for Poisson meshes are displayed for (d) a kernel width of 40.0 mm producing 45 control points, (e) a kernel width of 20.0 mm producing 270 control points, and (f) a kernel width of 10.0 mm producing 1,782 control points. The red line represents the correlation between values with a 95% confidence interval. All correlations were significant (p < 0.01)
