Sensitivity analysis and design optimization through automatic differentiation
2005
Journal of Physics, Conference Series
Automatic, or algorithmic, differentiation (AD) is a technique for transforming a program or subprogram that can be interpreted as computing a mathematical function, including arbitrarily complex simulation codes, into one that computes the derivatives of that function. We describe the implementation and application of automatic differentiation tools. We highlight recent advances in the combinatorial algorithms and compiler technology that underlie successful implementation of automatic
