I'm pleased to announce the initial release of the Haskell fad library, developed by Barak A. Pearlmutter and Jeffrey Mark Siskind. Fad provides Forward Automatic Differentiation (AD) for functions polymorphic over instances of 'Num'. There have been many Haskell implementations of forward AD, with varying levels of completeness, published in papers and blog posts[1], but alarmingly few of these have made it into hackage -- to date Conal Elliot's vector-spaces[2] package is the only one I am aware of.
Do you count computations with power series also as Automatic Differentiation? I mean, arithmetic on power series is just working with all derivatives simultaneously. with Haskell 98 type classes: http://darcs.haskell.org/htam/src/PowerSeries/Taylor.hs with advanced type classes: http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/numeric-prelude/0.0.5/doc/html/M...
