Wigner–Ville Distribution Associated with Clifford Geometric Algebra Cln,0, n=3(mod 4) Based on Clifford–Fourier Transform

In this study, the Wigner–Ville distribution is associated with the one sided Clifford–Fourier transform over Rn, n = 3(mod 4). Accordingly, several fundamental properties of the WVD-CFT have been established, including non-linearity, the shift property, dilation, the vector differential, the vector derivative, and the powers of τ∈Rn. Moreover, powerful results on the WVD-CFT have been derived such as Parseval’s theorem, convolution theorem, Moyal’s formula, and reconstruction formula. Eventually, we deduce a directional uncertainty principle associated with WVD-CFT. These types of results, as well as methodologies for solving them, have applications in a wide range of fields where symmetry is crucial.

Three‐dimensional generalized analytic signal associated with linear canonical transform in Clifford biquaternion domain

Analytic signal is a useful mathematical tool. It separates qualitative and quantitative information of a signal in form of the local phase and local amplitude. Clifford Fourier transform (CFT) plays a vital role in the representation of multidimensional signals. By generalizing the CFT to Clifford linear canonical transform (CLCT), we present a new type of Clifford biquaternionic analytic signal. Due to the advantages of more freedom, the envelop detection problems of 3D images, with the help of this new analytic signal, can get a better visual appearance. Synthesis examples are presented to demonstrate these advantages.

Geometric algebra generation of molecular surfaces.

Geometric algebra is a powerful framework that unifies mathematics and physics. Since its revival in the 1960s, it has attracted great attention and has been exploited in fields like physics, computer science and engineering. This work introduces a geometric algebra method for the molecular surface generation that uses the Clifford-Fourier transform (CFT) which is a generalization of the classical Fourier transform. Notably, the classical Fourier transform and CFT differ in the derivative property in [Formula: see text] for k even. This distinction is due to the non-commutativity of geometric product of pseudoscalars with multivectors and has significant consequences in applications. We use the CFT in [Formula: see text] to benefit from the derivative property in solving partial differential equations (PDEs). The CFT is used to solve the mode decomposition process in PDE transform. Two different initial cases are proposed to make the initial shapes in the present method. The proposed method is applied first to small molecules and proteins. To validate the method, the molecular surfaces generated are compared to surfaces of other definitions. Applications are considered to protein electrostatic surface potentials and solvation free energy. This work opens the door for further applications of geometric algebra and CFT in biological sciences.

Titchmarsh’s Theorem in Clifford Analysis

The Clifford Fourier transform (CFT) has been shown to be a crucial tool in the Clifford analysis. The purpose of this paper is to derive an analog of Titchmarsh’s theorems for the CFT for functions satisfying the Lipschitz and Dini–Lipschitz conditions in the space $$L^p(\mathbb {R}^{p,q},C\ell (p,q)), 1<p\le 2,$$ where $$C\ell (p,q)$$ is the Clifford algebra.

Fractional Clifford–Fourier Transform and its Application

In this paper, we consider a version of the fractional Clifford–Fourier transform (FrCFT) and study its several properties and applications to partial differential equations in Clifford analysis. First, we give the definition of the FrCFT and its inverse transform in the form of integral. Then, we discuss the relationship between the FrCFT and the Clifford–Fourier transform (CFT) and give some properties of the FrCFT, including Plancherel identity, differential properties, etc. Especially we give a new form of differential formula. Finally, we give an application of these results to a partial differential equation.

Two-Sided Fourier Transform in Clifford Analysis and Its Application

In this paper, we first define a two-sided Clifford Fourier transform(CFT) and its inverse transformation on $$L^{1}$$ space. Then we study the differential of the two-sided CFT, the k-th power of $$F \{h\}$$ , Plancherel identity and time-frequency shift of the two-sided CFT. Finally we discuss the uncertainty principle of the two-sided CFT and give an application of the two-sided CFT to a partial differential equation.

Geometric Algebra Applications in Geospatial Artificial Intelligence and Remote Sensing Image Processing

With the increasing demand for multidimensional data processing, Geometric algebra (GA) has attracted more and more attention in the field of geographical information systems. GA unifies and generalizes real numbers and complex, quaternion, and vector algebra, and converts complicated relations and operations into intuitive algebra independent of coordinate systems. It also provides a solution for solving multidimensional information processing with a high correlation among the dimensions and avoids the loss of information. Traditional methods of computer vision and artificial intelligence (AI) provide robust results in multidimensional processing after being combined with GA and give additional feature analysis facility to remote sensing images. In this paper, we provide a detailed review of GA in different fields of AI and computer vision regarding its applications and the current developments in geospatial research. We also discuss the Clifford–Fourier transform (CFT) and quaternions (sub-algebra of GA) because of their necessity in remote sensing image processing. We focus on how GA helps AI and solves classification problems, as well as improving these methods using geometric algebra processing. Finally, we discuss the issues, challenges, and future perspectives of GA with regards to possible research directions.

Spectrums of Functions Associated to the Fractional Clifford–Fourier Transform

In this paper, we prove several versions of the real Paley–Wiener theorems for a fractional Clifford–Fourier transform which depends on two numerical parameters and paves the way in some sense for a functional calculus approach to generalizing the Fourier transform to Clifford analysis.

Donoho–Stark’s Uncertainty Principles in Real Clifford Algebras

The Clifford Fourier transform (CFT) has been shown to be a powerful tool in the Clifford analysis. In this work, several uncertainty inequalities are established in the real Clifford algebra $Cl_{(p,q)}$, \ including the Hausdorf-Young inequality, and three qualitative uncertainty principles of Donoho-Stark.

Sparse fast Clifford Fourier transform

The Clifford Fourier transform (CFT) can be applied to both vector and scalar fields. However, due to problems with big data, CFT is not efficient, because the algorithm is calculated in each semaphore. The sparse fast Fourier transform (sFFT) theory deals with the big data problem by using input data selectively. This has inspired us to create a new algorithm called sparse fast CFT (SFCFT), which can greatly improve the computing performance in scalar and vector fields. The experiments are implemented using the scalar field and grayscale and color images, and the results are compared with those using FFT, CFT, and sFFT. The results demonstrate that SFCFT can effectively improve the performance of multivector signal processing.

Uncertainty Principles for the Clifford–Fourier Transform

In this paper, we establish analogues of Hardy’s and Miyachi’s theorems for the Clifford–Fourier transform.

General Steerable Two-sided Clifford Fourier Transform, Convolution and Mustard Convolution

In this paper we use the general steerable two-sided Clifford Fourier transform (CFT), and relate the classical convolution of Clifford algebra-valued signals over \({\mathbb{R}^{p,q}}\) with the (equally steerable) Mustard convolution. A Mustard convolution can be expressed in the spectral domain as the point wise product of the CFTs of the factor functions. In full generality we express the classical convolution of Clifford algebra signals in terms of finite linear combinations of Mustard convolutions, and vice versa the Mustard convolution of Clifford algebra signals in terms of finite linear combinations of classical convolutions.

Operator Exponentials for the Clifford Fourier Transform on Multivector Fields in Detail

In this paper we study Clifford Fourier transforms (CFT) of multivector functions taking values in Clifford’s geometric algebra, hereby using techniques coming from Clifford analysis (the multivariate function theory for the Dirac operator). In these CFTs on multivector signals, the complex unit \({i \in \mathbb{C}}\) is replaced by a multivector square root of −1, which may be a pseudoscalar in the simplest case. For these integral transforms we derive an operator representation expressed as the Hamilton operator of a harmonic oscillator.

Real Paley-Wiener theorems for the Clifford Fourier transform

Associated with the Dirac operator and partial derivatives, this paper establishes some real Paley-Wiener type theorems to characterize the Clifford-valued functions whose Clifford Fourier transform (CFT) has compact support. Based on the Riemann-Lebesgue theorem for the CFT, the Boas theorem is provided to describe the CFT of Clifford-valued functions that vanish on a neighborhood of the origin.

Two-Sided Clifford Fourier Transform with Two Square Roots of −1 in Cl(p, q)

We generalize quaternion and Clifford Fourier transforms to general two-sided Clifford Fourier transforms (CFT), and study their properties (from linearity to convolution). Two general multivector square roots $${\in}$$ Cl(p, q) of −1 are used to split multivector signals, and to construct the left and right CFT kernel factors.

Real clifford windowed Fourier transform

We study the windowed Fourier transform in the framework of Clifford analysis, which we call the Clifford windowed Fourier transform (CWFT). Based on the spectral representation of the Clifford Fourier transform (CFT), we derive several important properties such as shift, modulation, reconstruction formula, orthogonality relation, isometry, and reproducing kernel. We also present an example to show the differences between the classical windowed Fourier transform (WFT) and the CWFT. Finally, as an application we establish a Heisenberg type uncertainty principle for the CWFT.

Clifford Algebra-Valued Wavelet Transform on Multivector Fields

This paper presents a construction of the n = 2 (mod 4) Clifford algebra Cln,0-valued admissible wavelet transform using the admissible similitude group SIM(n), a subgroup of the affine group of \({\mathbb{R}^{n}}\) . We express the admissibility condition in terms of the Cln,0 Clifford Fourier transform (CFT). We show that its fundamental properties such as inner product, norm relation, and inversion formula can be established whenever the Clifford admissible wavelet satisfies a particular admissibility condition. As an application we derive a Heisenberg type uncertainty principle for the Clifford algebra Cln,0-valued admissible wavelet transform. Finally, we provide some basic examples of these extended wavelets such as Clifford Morlet wavelets and Clifford Hermite wavelets.

Clifford Fourier Transform on Multivector Fields and Uncertainty Principles for Dimensions n = 2 (mod 4) and n = 3 (mod 4)

First, the basic concepts of the multivector functions, vector differential and vector derivative in geometric algebra are introduced. Second, we define a generalized real Fourier transform on Clifford multivector-valued functions (\(f : {{\mathbb{R}}}^n \rightarrow Cl_{n,0}, n = 2, 3\) (mod 4)). Third, we show a set of important properties of the Clifford Fourier transform on Cln,0, n = 2, 3 (mod 4) such as differentiation properties, and the Plancherel theorem, independent of special commutation properties. Fourth, we develop and utilize commutation properties for giving explicit formulas for fxm, f ∇m and for the Clifford convolution. Finally, we apply Clifford Fourier transform properties for proving an uncertainty principle for Cln,0, n = 2, 3 (mod 4) multivector functions.

First, the basic concept of the vector derivative in geometric algebra is introduced. Second, beginning with the Fourier transform on a scalar function we generalize to a real Fourier transform on Clifford multivector-valued functions \( (f:\user2{\mathbb{R}}^3 \to Cl_{3,0} ). \) Third, we show a set of important properties of the Clifford Fourier transform on Cl3,0 such as differentiation properties, and the Plancherel theorem. Finally, we apply the Clifford Fourier transform properties for proving an uncertainty principle for Cl3,0 multivector functions.
