PolyesterForwardDiff

Stable Dev CI Coverage

PolyesterForwardDiff.jl is a parallelized ForwardDiff.jl. That's it. It's super fast. See this paper for some benchmark results.

Example calls

It's pretty much the same as ForwardDiff.jl except it is threaded. The API is the same for gradients and Jacobians.

PolyesterForwardDiff.threaded_gradient!(f, dx, x, ForwardDiff.Chunk(8));
PolyesterForwardDiff.threaded_jacobian!(g, dx, x, ForwardDiff.Chunk(8));
PolyesterForwardDiff.threaded_jacobian!(g!, y, dx, x, ForwardDiff.Chunk(8));
PolyesterForwardDiff.threaded_gradient!(f, dx, x, ForwardDiff.Chunk(8),Val{true}()); #To enable tag checking
