\begin{abstract}
|
|
This report presents a comparative analysis of ornithischian dinosaur specimens,
|
|
focusing on body mass, encephalization quotient, and defensive adaptations.
|
|
The Stegosaurus remains one of the most distinctive members of this clade.

\section{Introduction}
|
|
|
|
The Ornithischia (``bird-hipped'' dinosaurs) represent one of the two major
|
|
clades of dinosaurs, characterized by a pubis bone that points backward.
|
|
This clade includes many well-known species including Stegosaurus,
|
|
Triceratops, and Ankylosaurus.

\section{Encephalization Quotient}
|
|
|
|
The encephalization quotient (EQ) provides a measure of relative brain size:
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
EQ = \frac{E_{actual}}{E_{expected}} = \frac{E_{actual}}{0.12 \cdot M^{0.67}}
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
where $E_{actual}$ is the actual brain mass and $M$ is body mass in kilograms.
|
|
|
|
\section{Conclusion}
|
|
|
|
Ornithischian dinosaurs show remarkable diversity in defensive adaptations,
|
|
from the plates and spikes of Stegosaurus to the armored shell of Ankylosaurus
|
|
and the horned frill of Triceratops.
