Morphometric Analysis of 3D Soft-Tissue for Sexual Dimorphism in Human Face

SUMMARY: Sexual dimorphism in Homo-sapiens is a phenomenon of a direct product of evolution by natural selection where evolutionary forces acted separately on the sexes which brought about the differences in appearance between male and female such as in shape and size. Advances in morphometrics have...
