Q: Simplify/FullSimplify algebraic expressions to Matrices/Determinants

tlatevIs it possible to tell Mathematica to transform algebraic expressions into matrices/determinants etc? In its simplest form what I'm looking for is: In:= FullestSimplify[-b c + a d] (* Out:=Det[{{a, c}, {b, d}}] *) Another example: In:= FullestSimplify[a - b + c - b c - d + a d] (* Out:= .....
