First Order Reverse Mode

Syntax
dw = f.Reverse(1, w)

Purpose
We use @(@ F : \B{R}^n \rightarrow \B{R}^m @)@ to denote the AD function corresponding to f . The function @(@ W : \B{R}^n \rightarrow \B{R} @)@ is defined by @[@ W(x) = w_0 * F_0 ( x ) + \cdots + w_{m-1} * F_{m-1} (x) @]@ The result of this operation is the derivative @(@ dw = W^{(1)} (x) @)@; i.e., @[@ dw = w_0 * F_0^{(1)} ( x ) + \cdots + w_{m-1} * F_{m-1}^{(1)} (x) @]@ Note that if @(@ w @)@ is the i-th elementary vector , @(@ dw = F_i^{(1)} (x) @)@.

f
The object f has prototype
    const ADFun<
Basef
Before this call to Reverse, the value returned by
    
f.size_order()
must be greater than or equal one (see size_order ).

x
The vector x in expression for dw above corresponds to the previous call to forward_zero using this ADFun object f ; i.e.,
    
f.Forward(0, x)
If there is no previous call with the first argument zero, the value of the independent variables during the recording of the AD sequence of operations is used for x .

w
The argument w has prototype
    const 
Vector &w
(see Vector below) and its size must be equal to m , the dimension of the range space for f .

dw
The result dw has prototype
    
Vector dw
(see Vector below) and its value is the derivative @(@ W^{(1)} (x) @)@. The size of dw is equal to n , the dimension of the domain space for f .

Vector
The type Vector must be a SimpleVector class with elements of type Base . The routine CheckSimpleVector will generate an error message if this is not the case.

Example
The file reverse_one.cpp contains an example and test of this operation.
