Visualization of the projective line geometry for geometric algebra Drawing lines in GAViewer
نویسنده
چکیده
This thesis describes a method for computationally recognizing the geometrical interpretation of most blades of the model of projective line geometry in geometric algebra. These different interpretations are not merely recognizable by the grade of the elements, or the absence or presence of some basis vector, as can be done for the homogeneous model for geometric algebra. GAViewer, a graphical calculator for the Euclidean and conformal models of geometric algebra, is extended to implement the projective line geometry and its visualization.

Three-Dimensional Projective Geometry with Geometric Algebra
The line geometric model of 3-D projective geometry has the nice property that the Lie algebra sl(4) of 3-D projective transformations is isomorphic to the bivector algebra of Cl(3, 3), and line geometry is closely related to the classical screw theory for 3-D rigid-body motions. The canonical homomorphism from SL(4) to Spin(3, 3) is not satisfying because it is not surjective, and the projecti...
متن کاملGeometric algebra: a framework for computing point and line correspondences and projective structure using n uncalibrated cameras
In this paper we present geometric algebra as a system for analysing the geometry of multiple-view images. The power of this approach is illustrated by giving purely geometric derivations of the constraints for point and line correspondences in n-views and via a discussion of projective structure.
متن کاملTriple factorization of non-abelian groups by two maximal subgroups
The triple factorization of a group $G$ has been studied recently showing that $G=ABA$ for some proper subgroups $A$ and $B$ of $G$, the definition of rank-two geometry and rank-two coset geometry which is closely related to the triple factorization was defined and calculated for abelian groups. In this paper we study two infinite classes of non-abelian finite groups $D_{2n}$ and $PSL(2,2^{n})$...
متن کاملConformal Geometry, Euclidean Space and Geometric Algebra
Projective geometry provides the preferred framework for most implementations of Euclidean space in graphics applications. Translations and rotations are both linear transformations in projective geometry, which helps when it comes to programming complicated geometrical operations. But there is a fundamental weakness in this approach — the Euclidean distance between points is not handled in a s...
متن کاملWhat can Grassmann, Hamilton and Clifford tell us about Computer Vision and Robotics
Geometric algebra is a universal mathematical language which provides very comprehensive techniques for analyzing the complex geometric situations occurring in robotics and computer vision. The application of the 4D motor algebra for the linearization of the the hand-eye calibration problem is presented. Geometric algebra and its associated linear algebra framework is a very elegant language to...
