Automatic Differentiation for Inverse Problems in X-ray Imaging and Microscopy [PDF]
Computational techniques allow breaking the limits of traditional imaging methods, such as time restrictions, resolution, and optics flaws. While simple computational methods can be enough for highly controlled microscope setups or just for previews, an ...

MapsTorch: automatic differentiation for X-ray fluorescence data analysis [PDF]
X-ray fluorescence (XRF) is a popular spectroscopy technique for elemental analysis. Spectrum fitting and parameter tuning are at the core of XRF analysis and are conventionally manually intensive, especially for synchrotron experiments involving large ...

The simple essence of automatic differentiation [PDF]
Automatic differentiation (AD) in reverse mode (RAD) is a central component of deep learning and other uses of large-scale optimization. Commonly used RAD algorithms such as backpropagation, however, are complex and stateful, hindering deep understanding, improvement, and parallel execution.

Automatic differentiation in PCF [PDF]
We study the correctness of automatic differentiation (AD) in the context of a higher-order, Turing-complete language (PCF with real numbers), both in forward and reverse mode. Our main result is that, under mild hypotheses on the primitive functions included in the language, AD is almost everywhere correct, that is, it computes the ...

A taxonomy of automatic differentiation pitfalls
AbstractAutomatic differentiation is a popular technique for computing derivatives of computer programs. While automatic differentiation has been successfully used in countless engineering, science, and machine learning applications, it can sometimes nevertheless produce surprising results.

Automatic Differentiation in Prolog
AbstractAutomatic differentiation (AD) is a range of algorithms to compute the numeric value of a function’s (partial) derivative, where the function is typically given as a computer program or abstract syntax tree. AD has become immensely popular as part of many learning algorithms, notably for neural networks. This paper uses Prolog to systematically

Application of Generalized (Hyper-) Dual Numbers in Equation of State Modeling
The calculation of derivatives is ubiquitous in science and engineering. In thermodynamics, in particular, state properties can be expressed as derivatives of thermodynamic potentials. The manual differentiation of complex models can be tedious and error-

Application of seeding and automatic differentiation in a large scale ocean circulation model [PDF]
Computation of the Jacobian in a 3-dimensional general ocean circulation model is considered in this paper. The Jacobian matrix considered in this paper is square, large and sparse.
