Color Image Representation Using Multivector
Somasis Roy, Anirban Mitra, Sanjit Kumar Setua · 2014
This paper discusses about Clifford Algebra and its significance in a color image representation. A color image following RGB color model is described by a multivector in 3D space. The color blades in the multivector define the colors. Different shades of color can be obtained by applying rotor operator on those blades. Clifford color space is introduced to define each color against a pixel of an image in form of a color blade. A multivector function is derived from this space for explaining the color image. In simpler way, it is proposed that a color image is stored in the Clifford color space. This paper is also useful in the reduction of computation time for color image processing as every Grade -- k vectors are colors.
