Elevated diversity in loci linked to facial morphology is consistent with the hypothesis that individual facial recognition is important across hominoids

Abstract: Objectives: The ability to use visual signals to identify individuals is an important feature of primate social groups, including humans. Sheehan and Nachman (2014) showed that loci linked to facial morphology had elevated levels of diversity and interpreted this as evidence that the human face is under frequency-dependent selection to enhance individual recognition (Nature Communications 5). In our study, we tested whether this pattern is found in non-human ape species, to help understand whether individual r… Show more

“…The computer FRT for digital libraries has brought significant convenience and improvement to the management and services of libraries, enabling efficient operations such as self-service borrowing, returning, and identity verification [ 23 , 24 ]. The FL-AF architecture based on facial expressions preprocesses input facial images, including standardization and grayscale.…”
