Interface Gradient

All Superinterfaces:

Multidimensional

public interface Gradient
extends Multidimensional

Multidimensionals that implement this interface can calculate their gradient on a given point P. The gradient is a vector of the same dimension as the vector function itself, i.e.

   grad_i = ∂f(x)/∂x_i
   

This is the vector version of Differentiable

Method Summary

Method Detail

grad

VectorG grad(VectorG at)

Returns the gradient vector at the given point. The dimension of the gradient is always identical to the dimension of the Multidimensional.
