Adjoint Algorithmic Differentiation: Calibration and Implicit Function Theorem
نویسنده
چکیده
Adjoint Algorithmic Differentiation is an efficient way to obtain financial instrument price derivatives with respect to the data inputs. Often the differentiation does not cover the full pricing process when a model calibration is performed. Thanks to the implicit function theorem, the differentiation of the solver embedded in the calibration is not required to differentiate to full pricing process. An efficient approach to the full process differentiation is described.

Calibration in Finance: Very Fast Greeks Through Algorithmic Differentiation and Implicit Function
Adjoint Algorithmic Differentiation is an efficient way to obtain price derivatives with respect to the data inputs. We describe how the process efficiency can be further improved when a model calibration is performed. Using the implicit function theorem, differentiating the numerical process used in calibration is not required. The resulting implementation is more efficient than automatic diff...
متن کاملReal-Time Risk Management: An AAD-PDE Approach
We apply adjoint algorithmic differentiation (AAD) to the risk management of securities when their price dynamics are given by partial differential equations (PDE). We show how AAD can be applied to forward and backward PDEs in a straightforward manner. In the context of one-factor models for interest rates or default intensities, we show how price sensitivities are computed reliably and orders...
متن کاملDiscrete Adjoint of a fully-implicit coupled solver based on foam-extend using Algorithmic Differentiation
Adjoint based methods are an effective way to obtain accurate gradients for CFD optimization problems since the computation cost for the calculation of these gradients is relatively independent of the degrees of freedom. At the heart of such an optimization process lies the computation of topology sensitivity maps. Sensitivities are derivatives of an objective function resulting from CFD comput...

Computing sensitivities of climate-related quantities of interest (QoI) to very high-dimensional state or parameter spaces in an efficient manner is of considerable interest in climate science. Applications in which sensitivities are propagated in time by means of adjoint models include quantifying controlling factors of the QoI’s variations [24, 3], optimal state and parameter estimation (”dat...

Forward and reverse modes of algorithmic differentiation (AD) transform implementations of multivariate vector functions F : IR → IR as computer programs into tangent and adjoint code, respectively. The adjoint mode is of particular interest in large-scale functions due to the independence of its computational cost on the number of free variables. The additional memory requirement for the compu...
