Description for Evaluating Derivatives
Paperback. A comprehensive treatment of algorithmic, or automatic, differentiation. Num Pages: 460 pages, ill. BIC Classification: PBKJ; PBWH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 256 x 159 x 22. Weight in Grams: 818.
Algorithmic, or automatic, differentiation (AD) is a growing area of theoretical research and software development concerned with the accurate and efficient evaluation of derivatives for function evaluations given as computer programs. The resulting derivative values are useful for all scientific computations that are based on linear, quadratic, or higher order approximations to nonlinear scalar or vector functions. This second edition covers recent developments in applications and theory, including an elegant NP completeness argument and an introduction to scarcity. There is also added material on checkpointing and iterative differentiation. To improve readability the more detailed analysis of memory and complexity bounds ... Read more
