Numeric.AD

Mixed-Mode Automatic Differentiation.

Each combinator exported from this module chooses an appropriate AD mode. The following basic operations are supported, modified as appropriate by the suffixes below:

• grad computes the gradient (partial derivatives) of a function at a point
• jacobian computes the Jacobian matrix of a function at a point
• diff computes the derivative of a function at a point
• du computes a directional derivative of a function at a point
• hessian compute the Hessian matrix (matrix of second partial derivatives) of a function at a point

The suffixes have the following meanings:

• ' -- also return the answer
• With lets the user supply a function to blend the input with the output
• F is a version of the base function lifted to return a Traversable (or Functor) result
• s means the function returns all higher derivatives in a list or f-branching Stream
• T means the result is transposed with respect to the traditional formulation.
• 0 means that the resulting derivative list is padded with 0s at the end.

Variadic Gradients (Sparse or Kahn)

Variadic combinators for variadic mixed-mode automatic differentiation.

Unfortunately, variadicity comes at the expense of being able to use quantification to avoid sensitivity confusion, so be careful when counting the number of auto calls you use when taking the gradient of a function that takes gradients!
