Doran et al. ◀ Dinosaur baraminology ▶ 2018 ICC 435 Figure 69. Three-dimensional classical MDS applied to Norman, Witmer et al.’s (2004) data matrix for “basal” Ornithopoda. Marginocephalia is shown in gray, members of Ornithopoda are shown in light red, and the outgroup is in dark red. H. tucki is closest to the outgroup. Scree plot suggests the first axis represents most of the variation. Figure 68. BDC results for Norman, Witmer et al.’s (2004) data matrix of “basal” Ornithopoda, as calculated by BDISTMDS (relevance cutoff 0.80). Closed squares indicate significant, positive BDC; open circles indicate significant, negative BDC. Figure 71. BDC results for Norman’s (2004) data matrix of “basal” Iguanodontia, as calculated by BDISTMDS (relevance cutoff 0.95). Closed squares indicate significant, positive BDC; open circles indicate significant, negative BDC. Figure 70. Biplot of PCA scores (black) and vectors (gray) for Norman, Witmer et al.’s (2004) data matrix for Ornithopoda. PC 1 accounts for 38.6% of the variance and PC 2 accounts for 20.8% of the variance. All are members of Ornithopoda, except for Marginocephalia (top right).
