Abstract: In this paper we present a new approach to measuring similarity between two shape of object. In conventional method, centroid contour distance (CCD) is formed by measuring distance between centroid (center) and boundary of object, but this method cannot capture if an object have multiple boundary in the same angle. We develop a novel approach feature shape by measuring distance between centroid (center) and boundary of object that can capture multiple boundaries in the same angle or multi-layer centroid contour distance (MLCCD). The experiment result on simulation dataset and plankton dataset show that the proposed method (MLCCD) better than the conventional method (CCD).
