Such divisions appeared in early modern scholarship, usually dividing humankind into four or five categories, with colour-based labels: red, yellow, black, white, and sometimes brown. [ 1 ] [ failed verification ] It was long recognized that the number of categories is arbitrary and subjective, and different ethnic groups were placed in ...
There are some facial features or combinations of features that observers find harder to classify as belonging to a group within their existing notions of race. Individuals whom observers find hard to categorize are considered 'racially ambiguous' by outside observers and are often multiracial. Racially ambiguous people are likely to experience ...
The cross race effect has a morphological basis: The facial appearance is morphologically different for different ethnic backgrounds. This has been established empirically, [35] wherein a large set of 3D scans of faces from different ethnic backgrounds was automatically clustered into groups. Only facial landmark distances were used in this ...
In terms of facial features, the nasal profile most common amongst Nilotic populations is broad, with characteristically high index values ranging from 86.9 to 92.0. Lower nasal indices are often found amongst Nilotes who inhabit the more southerly Great Lakes region, such as the Maasai, which is attributed to genetic differences. [61]
What are innate are phenotypic distinctions, both obvious (skin color, average facial features) and not-so-obvious (e.g. different anti-malarial defenses), plus human tendencies to categorize, and to prefer to associate with familiar-looking people while distrusting "the other". The phenotypic differences vary almost ridiculously widely, across ...
DNNs offer an opportunity to identify links between characteristics and facial features that might be missed or misinterpreted by the human brain. [ 6 ] The relationship between facial features and character traits such as political or sexual orientation is complex, but involves the fact that facial features can shape social behavior, partially ...

A 2009 genetic clustering study, which genotyped 1327 polymorphic markers in various African populations, identified six ancestral clusters. The clustering corresponded closely with ethnicity, culture, and language. [4] A 2018 whole genome sequencing study of the world's populations observed similar clusters among the populations in Africa.
