We study parameterisation-independent closed planar curve matching as a Bayesian inverse problem. The motion of the curve is modelled via a curve on the diffeomorphism group acting on the ambient space, leading to a large deformation diffeomorphic metric mapping (LDDMM) functional penalising the kinetic energy of the deformation. We solve Hamilton's equations for the curve matching problem using the Wu-Xu element [S. Wu, J. Xu, Nonconforming finite element spaces for 2m^th order partial differential equations on ℝ^n simplicial grids when m=n+1, Mathematics of Computation 88 (316) (2019) 531-551] which provides mesh-independent Lipschitz constants for the forward motion of the curve, and solve the inverse problem for the momentum using Bayesian inversion. Since this element is not affine-equivalent we provide a pullback theory which expedites the implementation and efficiency of the forward map. We adopt ensemble Kalman inversion using a negative Sobolev norm mismatch penalty to measure the discrepancy between the target and the ensemble mean shape. We provide several numerical examples to validate the approach.
