Its benefits include cleaner computer-program solutions for known geometric computation tasks, and the ability to address increasingly more involved applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis highly practical \u003ci\u003eGuide to Geometric Algebra in Practice\u003c\/i\u003e reviews algebraic techniques for geometrical problems in computer science and engineering, and the relationships between them. The topics covered range from powerful new theoretical developments, to successful applications, and the development of new software and hardware tools. Contributions are included from an international community of experts spanning a broad range of disciplines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTopics and features: provides hands-on review exercises throughout the book, together with helpful chapter summaries; presents a concise introductory tutorial to conformal geometric algebra (CGA) in the appendices; examines the application of CGA for the description of rigid body motion, interpolation and tracking, and image processing; reviews the employment of GA in theorem proving and combinatorics; discusses the geometric algebra of lines, lower-dimensional algebras, and other alternatives to 5-dimensional CGA; proposes applications of coordinate-free methods of GA for differential geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis comprehensive guide\/reference is essential reading for researchers and professionals from a broad range of disciplines, including computer graphics and game design, robotics, computer vision, and signal processing. In addition, its instructional content and approach makes it ideal for course use and students who need to learn the value of GA techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Leo Dorst\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/29\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 458\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.86lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.06d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780857298102","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":40223090114675,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":173.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_511a2c9c-3c31-4bfe-ae7f-3f7777706ca4.jpg?v=1656682379","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/guide-to-geometric-algebra-in-practice-9780857298102","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
