Geometric Computing with Clifford Algebras: Theoretical Foundations and Applications in Computer Vision and Robotics

by Gerald Sommer

Book Overview

This monograph-like anthology introduces the concepts and framework of Clifford algebra. It provides a rich source of examples of how to work with this formalism. Clifford or geometric algebra shows strong unifying aspects and turned out in the 1960s to be a most adequate formalism for describing different geometry-related algebraic systems as specializations of one "mother algebra" in various subfields of physics and engineering. Recent work shows...
