Automatic Differentiation (Mathias Körner)

Mathias is going to explain us Automatic Differentiation using the example of the ad package (http://hackage.haskell.org/package/ad-3.1.4).

Some background material can be found here:

I scheduled the meeting 15 minutes earlier to avoid people being locked out as ETH closes its door at 7pm sharp. Please be in time.

Also, this meetup is not on a Thursday. Unfortunately, this is the only available time slot for Mathias. We will still try to stick with Thursdays in the future.

Looking forward to see you on this last HaskellZ meetup in 2012.
