We can calculate the gradient of a tangent to a curve by differentiating. In order to find the equation of a tangent, we: Differentiate the equation of the curve Substitute the \(x\) value into the ...

A non-native plant species spreading along an environmental gradient may need to adjust its growth to the prevailing conditions that it encounters by a combination of phenotypic plasticity and genetic ...

Automatic differentiation (AD) is a practical field of computational mathematics that is of growing interest across many industries, including finance. The use of reverse-mode AD is particularly ...

“Our lab uses different polymers to interact with the nervous system. We think there's a window after injury that seems to mirror development,” said Paul George, a physician scientist at Stanford ...
