Abstract : Some early violins were reduced during their history to fit imposed morphological standards. We propose an objective photogrammetric approach to differentiate between a reduced and an unreduced instrument by examining 3D meshes, previously validated with a sub-millimetre accuracy through a comparison with CT scans. We show how quantitative and qualitative features can be automatically extracted from the meshes with geometrical, statistical and machine learning tools, allowing to successfully highlight differences between reduced and unreduced instruments.
