Abstract: The paper concerns clustering with respect to the shape and size of 2D contours that are boundaries of cross-sections of 3D objects of revolution. We propose a number of similarity measures based on combined disparate Procrustes analysis (PA) and Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) distances. Motivation and the main application for this study comes from archaeology. The performed computational experiments refer to the clustering of archaeological pottery.
