contents We propose an algebraic formulation for two distinct quantum algorithms: a quantum classification algorithm and a quantum search algorithm with a non-uniform initial distribution, both based on Clifford algebras and spinorial representations. In the classification algorithm, we exploit properties of spinorial representations to construct orthogonal quantum states associated with different classes, allowing the identification of an item's class through the evaluation of expectation values of operators derived from the generators of the Clifford algebra. In the quantum search algorithm, we consider a database with prior information in which the oracle is implemented directly using generators of the Clifford algebra, simplifying its realization. The proposed approach provides a unified algebraic description for both algorithms, employing spinorial representations in the construction of quantum states and operators. Computational implementations are presented.
