Object data analysis is concerned with statistical methodology for datasets whose elements reside in an arbitrary, unspecified metric space. In this work we propose the object shape, a novel measure of shape/symmetry for object data. The object shape is easy to compute and interpret, owing to its intuitive interpretation as interpolation between two extreme forms of symmetry. As one major part of this work, we apply object shape in various metric spaces and show that it manages to unify several pre-existing, classical forms of symmetry. We also propose a new visualisation tool called the peeling plot, which allows using the object shape for outlier detection and principal component analysis of object data.
