PyTensor is a Python library that allows one to define, optimize, and efficiently evaluate mathematical expressions involving multi-dimensional arrays. It provides the computational backend for PyMC.
import pytensor from pytensor import tensor as pt # Declare two symbolic floating-point scalars a = pt.dscalar("a") b = pt.dscalar("b") # Create a simple example expression c = a + b # Convert the expression into a callable object that takes `(a, b)` # values as input and computes the value of `c`. f_c = pytensor.function([a, b], c) assert f_c(1.5, 2.5) == 4.0 # Compute the gradient of the example expression with respect to `a` dc = pytensor.grad(c, a) f_dc = pytensor.function([a, b], dc) assert f_dc(1.5, 2.5) == 1.0 # Compiling functions with `pytensor.function` also optimizes # expression graphs by removing unnecessary operations and # replacing computations with more efficient ones. v = pt.vector("v") M = pt.matrix("M") d = a/a + (M + a).dot(v) pytensor.dprint(d) # Add [id A] # ├─ ExpandDims{axis=0} [id B] # │ └─ True_div [id C] # │ ├─ a [id D] # │ └─ a [id D] # └─ dot [id E] # ├─ Add [id F] # │ ├─ M [id G] # │ └─ ExpandDims{axes=[0, 1]} [id H] # │ └─ a [id D] # └─ v [id I] f_d = pytensor.function([a, v, M], d) # `a/a` -> `1` and the dot product is replaced with a BLAS function # (i.e. CGemv) pytensor.dprint(f_d) # Add [id A] 5 # ├─ [1.] [id B] # └─ CGemv{inplace} [id C] 4 # ├─ AllocEmpty{dtype='float64'} [id D] 3 # │ └─ Shape_i{0} [id E] 2 # │ └─ M [id F] # ├─ 1.0 [id G] # ├─ Add [id H] 1 # │ ├─ M [id F] # │ └─ ExpandDims{axes=[0, 1]} [id I] 0 # │ └─ a [id J] # ├─ v [id K] # └─ 0.0 [id L]
