The median axis technique could be useful -

Hi, everyone,

 

I wonder if a few folks might take a look at these and give me a little advice (link to the image is below).

 

I’ve been working with this for a while, experimenting with various landmark locations and numbers, and while I’ve had some success, I think it could work better.  Essentially, I’m trying to ID landmarks that can effectively distinguish not only between something like the image at far left and the one at far right, but possibly even the far right vs. middle.

 

There’s additional variability among my sample, but these are good specimens for reference (these are all to the same scale here).

 

The bases are all I’m interested in, because (as you can see) many of these are incomplete.  The bases – particularly the projecting ears and the stems – are fairly diagnostic and range in form even beyond this variability.  The ears, for example, may be rounded, pointed, or squared.

 

I understand this is complex, but any suggestions at all would be welcome!

 

Thanks!
