Abstract

In the framework of D.Hestenes conception of Clifford algebras a description of linear image transforms is considered. It is show that the geometric algebra of a space with degenerate metric is an obvious and effective tool. It is stated that a lot of linear image transforms are realized with screwing (generalized rotation + shift) of this algebra.
