Implement a minimal library from scratch to help understand the Dynamic Computaional Graph of PyTorch.

• support CUDA

1. Create virtual environment

   python3 -m venv minitorch-env

2. Activate virtual environment

   source minitorch-env/bin/activate

3. Install dependencies

   pip install -r requirements.txt

1. Clone the codebase

   git clone [email protected]:zhouzaida/minitorch.git

2. Install or develop

   python setup.py install
   # or
   python setup.py develop

• create Tensor

  from minitorch import Tensor
  
  t1 = Tensor(2.0)
  t2 = Tensor(3.0)
  t3 = t1 + t2
  print(t3)  # Tensor(3.0, requires_grad=False)

• autograd

  from minitorch import Tensor
  
  t1 = Tensor(2.0, requires_grad=True)
  t2 = Tensor(3.0)
  t3 = t1 + t2
  t4 = t1 * t3
  t4.backward()
  print(f"t1 grad: {t1.grad}")  # t1 grad: Tensor(7.0, requires_grad=False)
  print(f"t2 grad: {t2.grad}")  # t2 grad: None

• gradient for broadcast

  from minitorch import Tensor
  
  t1 = Tensor([1.0, 2.0], requires_grad=True)
  t2 = Tensor(2.0, requires_grad=True)
  t3 = t1 + t2
  t3.backward(Tensor([1.0, 1.0]))
  print(f"t1 grad: {t1.grad}")  # t1 grad: Tensor([1., 1.], requires_grad=False)
  print(f"t2 grad: {t2.grad}")  # t2 grad: Tensor(2.0, requires_grad=False)

• create neural network

  import minitorch
  import minitorch.nn as nn
  
  input = minitorch.rand(2, 3)
  linear = nn.Linear(3, 5, bias=True)
  output = nn.linear(input)
  print(f"output: {output}")
  
  class Model(nn.Module):
  
      def __init__(self):
          super().__init__()
          self.linear_1 = nn.Linear(3, 5, bias=True)
          self.linear_2 = nn.Linear(5, 6)
  
      def forward(self, input):
          output = self.linear_1(input)
          output = self.linear_2(output)
          return output
  
  input = minitorch.rand(2, 3)
  model = Model()
  output = model(input)
  print(f"output: {output}")
  
  for name, module in model.named_modules(prefix='model'):
      print(f"{name}: {module}")
