This paper introduces the Clifford support vector machines as a generalization of the real- and complex- valued support vector machines using the Clifford geometric algebra. In this framework we handle the design of kernels involving the Clifford or geometric product for linear and nonlinear classification. We present an interesting application to classify mechanical tools using the concept of Clifford moments which is invariant under affine transformations.
