ADiPy – automatic differentiation library

ADiPy is an open source Python automatic differentiation library.

It’s a simple tool for handling arbitrary order automatic differentiation.

This package provides the following functionality:

  • Arbitrary order univariate differentiation.
  • First-order multivariate differentiation.
  • Univariate Taylor polynomial function generator – generate an callable function that allows approximation to some specifiable order.
  • Jacobian matrix generator – multivariate sessions can initialize individual independent AD objects.
  • Compatible linear algebra routines:
    • Decompositions:
      • Cholesky – a decomposition of a Hermitian, positive-definite matrix into the product of a lower triangular matrix and its conjugate transpose, which is useful for efficient numerical solutions, e.g. Monte Carlo simulations.
      • QR – a decomposition of a matrix A into a product A = QR of an orthogonal matrix Q and an upper triangular matrix R.
      • LU – factors a matrix as the product of a lower triangular matrix and an upper triangular matrix.
    • Linear system solvers:
      • General solver, with support for multiple outputs.
      • Least squares solver.
      • Matrix inverse.
    • Matrix norms:
      • Frobenius norm, or 2-norm. The method of Frobenius, named after Ferdinand Georg Frobenius, is a method of finding an infinite series solution for a specific second-order ordinary differential equation.
