چکیده

In [12] Stolfi developed a complete theory of Oriented Projective Geometry. He showed that assigning meaning to the sign of an otherwise homogenous representation of geometry could provide a multitude of benefits. This paper extends his work by applying the same approach to Conformal Geometric Algebra. Oriented Conformal Geometric Algebra allows intuitive manipulation of such concepts as half-spaces, inclusion within geometric entities and ordered intersections. It also illustrates the non-commutative nature of the meet. The paper concludes with some examples of applications in which Oriented Conformal Geometric Algebra is already providing benefits.

Conformal Geometric Objects with Focus on Oriented Points

In this paper, we explore the geometric objects of conformal geometric algebra based on their IPNS (inner product null space) representation in some detail. Spheres of dimension 1 , 2 and three are objects of conformal geometric algebra. Usually, points in conformal geometric algebra are represented as ordinary spheres with zero radius, but what about circles with zero radius? We expect many pr...

Geometric Algebra Model for Geometry-oriented Topological Relation Computation

Classical topological relation expressions and computations are primarily based on abstract algebra. In this article, the representation and computation of geometry-oriented topological relations (GOTR) are developed. GOTR is the integration of geometry and topology. The geometries are represented by blades, which contain both algebraic expressions and construction structures of the geometries ...

Geometric operations implemented by conformal geometric algebra neural nodes

Geometric algebra is an optimal frame work for calculating with vectors. The geometric algebra of a space includes elements that represent all the its subspaces (lines, planes, volumes, ...). Conformal geometric algebra expands this approach to elementary representations of arbitrary points, point pairs, lines, circles, planes and spheres. Apart from including curved objects, conformal geometri...

Geometric computing in computer graphics and robotics using conformal geometric algebra

In computer graphics and robotics a lot of different mathematical systems like vector algebra, homogenous coordinates, quaternions or dual quaternions are used for different applications. Now it seems that a change of paradigm is lying ahead of us based on Conformal Geometric Algebra unifying all of these different approaches in one mathematical system. Conformal Geometric Algebra is a very pow...
