Kernel methods have had great success in the statistics and machine learning community. Despite their growing popularity, however, less effort has been drawn towards developing kernel based classification methods on manifold due to the non-Euclidean geometry. In this paper, motivated by the extrinsic framework of manifold-valued data analysis, we propose two types of new kernels on planar Kendall shape space Σ_2^k, called extrinsic Veronese Whitney Gaussian kernel and extrinsic complex Gaussian kernel. We show that our approach can be extended to develop Gaussian like kernels on any embedded manifold. Furthermore, kernel ridge regression classifier (KRRC) is implemented to address the shape classification problem on Σ_2^k, and their promising performances are illustrated through the real dataset.
