Numerical Derivatives and Nonlinear Analysis

- Book -
 

Author(s)

Year
1985

Publisher
Plenum Press, Inc.

Abstract
The authors survey automatic differentiation by the FEED (Fast and Efficient Evaluation of Derivatives) method and its applications. The user writes programs consisting of subroutine calls. The subroutines perform the necessary differentiation arithmetic. Applications include Newton and Halley methods for rootfinding, nonlinear least squares, optimal control of two point boundary value problems using Newton-Raphson and gradient methods, system identification, Sukhanov's variable initial value method for boundary value problems, and nonlinear integral equations. Most examples include Fortran or Basic programs. The FEED method is used to compute the derivatives required by a method, but no Taylor series techniques are illustrated.
