A visualization of ontogenous cephalometric growth using bicubic interpolation.
Its number crunching capacity and objectivity make the computer an ideal tool for the exposition of the types of complex shape change characteristic of animal development. In this study skulls from humans of various ages were used to generate maps from which the computer interpolated the degree and direction of bilinear anisometric shape change demonstrative of the growth and development of a single human skull.
