learning-chip opened a new issue #20561: URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/20561
[functorch](https://github.com/facebookresearch/functorch) allows function transforms like `grad(func)(*inputs)`, borrowing from [JAX](https://github.com/google/jax). This opens new doors like: - High-order gradient by `grad(grad(func))` - Second-order quasi-Newton optimizers that needs Jacobian as input. Notably [(L-)BFGS](https://github.com/google/jax/issues/1400) and its randomized variants. - Better probablistic programming support [as in NumPyro](https://num.pyro.ai/en/stable/handlers.html) Happy to discuss more if there are any interests. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
