A dual quaternion algorithm of the Helmert transformation problem
Abstract Rigid transformation including rotation and translation can be elegantly represented by a unit dual quaternion. Thus, a non-differential model of the Helmert transformation (3D seven-parameter similarity transformation) is established based on unit dual quaternion. This paper presents a rig...
