Determining Rotors From Frame Pairs or Orthogonal Matrices
-----------------------------------------------------------

Given two frames that are related by a orthogonal transform, we seek a rotor
which enacts the transform. Details of the mathematics and psuedo-code used the
create the algorithms below can be found at Allan Cortzen's website.

 http://ctz.dk/geometric-algebra/frames-to-versor-algorithm/

There are also some helper functions which can be used to translate matrices
into GA frames, so an orthogonal (or complex unitary ) matrix can be directly
translated into a Verser.

def omoh(A, B):
    '''
    Determines homogenzation scaling for two Frames related by a Rotor

    This is used as part of the frames2Versor algorithm, when the
    frames are given in CGA. It is requried because the model assumes,

        `B = R*A*~R`
    but if data is given in the original space, only

        `lambda*B' == homo(B)`

    is observable. We need  to determine lambda before the Cartan-based
    algorithm can be used. The name of this function is inverses of
    `homo`, which is the method used to homogenize

    Parameters
    --------------
    A : list of vectors, or clifford.Frame
        the set of  vectors before the transform
    B : list of vectors, or clifford.Frame
        the set of  vectors after the transform, and homogenzation.
        ie B=(B/B|einf)


    Returns
    ---------
    out : list of floats
        weights on `B`, which produce inhomogenous versions  of `B`. If
        you multiply the input `B` by `lam`, it will fulfill `B = R*A*~R`

    Examples
    ----------
    lam = ohom(A,B):
    B_ohom = Frame([B[k]*lam[k] for k in range(len(B)])
    '''
    if len(A) != len(B) or len(A) < 3:
        raise ValueError('input must be >=3 long and len(a)==len(b)')

    idx = range(len(A))
    lam = zeros(len(A))

    for i in idx:
        j, k = [p for p in idx if p != i][:2]
        lam[i] = \
            float((A[i] * A[j])(0) * (A[i] * A[k])(0) * (B[j] * B[k])(0)) / \
