What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
His primary areas of study are Anatomy, Zoology, Sexual dimorphism, Morphometrics and Facial skeleton.
His study in the fields of Skull, Neurocranium and Thorax under the domain of Anatomy overlaps with other disciplines such as Context.
His Zoology study incorporates themes from Crania, Ecology and Mandrillus.
His Sexual dimorphism research integrates issues from Forensic anthropology, Mangabey and Immature skeleton.
His study in Morphometrics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Morphological analysis, Marmot, Marmota caligata, Mammal and Subgenus.
The Facial skeleton study combines topics in areas such as Allometry and Australopithecus africanus.
His most cited work include:
- Facial growth in Cercocebus torquatus: an application of three-dimensional geometric morphometric techniques to the study of morphological variation (343 citations)
- The study of morphological variation in the hominid fossil record: biology, landmarks and geometry. (288 citations)
- The earliest evidence for anatomically modern humans in northwestern Europe (207 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Anatomy, Skull, Morphometrics, Finite element method and Zoology.
As a part of the same scientific study, Paul O'Higgins usually deals with the Anatomy, concentrating on Masticatory force and frequently concerns with Strain.
Skull and Zygomatic arch are frequently intertwined in his study.
His work carried out in the field of Morphometrics brings together such families of science as Artificial intelligence and Pattern recognition.
His Zoology research includes themes of Allometry and Marmot.
His Sexual dimorphism research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Evolutionary biology, Forensic anthropology and Facial skeleton.
He most often published in these fields:
- Anatomy (44.39%)
- Skull (19.02%)
- Morphometrics (18.54%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Morphometrics (18.54%)
- Sexual dimorphism (15.12%)
- Sample size determination (5.85%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Paul O'Higgins spends much of his time researching Morphometrics, Sexual dimorphism, Sample size determination, Geometry and R package.
His research in Morphometrics intersects with topics in Orthodontics, Mandible, Masticatory force, Artificial intelligence and Pattern recognition.
Paul O'Higgins undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Sexual dimorphism and Demography in his work.
His Sample size determination research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Spurious relationship and Covariance.
His Geometry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Long bone and Section.
His research investigates the connection between Incisor and topics such as Biting that intersect with problems in Molar, Chin, Crania and Human evolution.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Human Mandibular Shape Is Associated With Masticatory Muscle Force (38 citations)
- Seeing Distinct Groups Where There are None: Spurious Patterns from Between-Group PCA (24 citations)
- Seeing Distinct Groups Where There are None: Spurious Patterns from Between-Group PCA (24 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
His main research concerns Variation, Fraction, Sample size determination, Group and Covariance.
Paul O'Higgins integrates many fields, such as Variation and engineering, in his works.
Paul O'Higgins connects Fraction with Sampling in his research.
