Automatic Differentiation in MATLAB

Authors: Kenneth C. Johnson

This document contains implementation notes for the MATLAB class "mpoly" (Multivariate Polynomial), which represents a numeric array (of any nonempty size, any number of dimensions) as a polynomial function (any degree) of a set of independent parameters (any number), or as a truncated Taylor series approximation. The class supports most standard array operations (algebra, indexing, etc.), employing automatic differentiation to calculate series coefficients of function outputs.
