Shape is an important phenotype of living species that contain different environmental and genetic information. Clustering living cells using their shape information can provide a preliminary guide to their functionality and evolution. Hierarchical clustering and dendrograms, as a visualization tool for hierarchical clustering, are commonly used by practitioners for classification and clustering. The existing hierarchical shape clustering methods are distance based. Such methods often lack a proper statistical foundation to allow for making inference on important parameters such as the number of clusters, often of prime interest to practitioners. We take a model selection perspective to clustering and propose a shape clustering method through linear models defined on Spherical Harmonics expansions of shapes. We introduce a BIC-type criterion, called CLUSBIC, and study consistency of the criterion. Special attention is paid to the notions of over- and under-specified models, important in studying model selection criteria and naturally defined in model selection literature. These notions do not automatically extend to shape clustering when a model selection perspective is adopted for clustering. To this end we take a novel approach using hypothesis testing. We apply our proposed criterion to cluster a set of real 3D images from HeLa cell line.
