Fomoh is a PyTorch-based library that implements nested forward AD and interfaces with PyTorch models.

Perform forward-mode automatic differentiation over functions in PyTorch to get first and second order information.
Train neural network models using forward-mode automatic differentiation.
Includes first-order FGD and our proposed approach of FoMoH-KD.

For additional details, please refer to our paper: Second-Order Forward-Mode Automatic Differentiation for Optimization

To run the code, from this directory location you can install the fomoh Python package:

pip install .

Blog posts and Notebook Tutorials:

For basic usage and an introduction please refer to this tutorial that covers the content of this notebook: Fomoh_Rosenblock_Example.ipynb
For training a neural network please refer to Training Neural Networks using Fomoh

Examples:

To run the Rosenbrock example from the paper, in the ./scripts/Rosenbrock location, run: python Rosenbrock_ND_dim_comparison.py --epochs 100 --dim-obj 10 --save-file ./plots/rosenbrock_comparison_plane_dim_comparison_10D.pt --newton
To run a logistic regression example from the paper, e.g. FoMoH, in the ./scripts/logistic_regression location, first make the new folder best_results, then run: ./train_model.sh 0.1362 1024 FoMoH 0
To run a cnn example from the paper, e.g. FoMoH, in the ./scripts/cnn location, first make the new folder best_results_3000, then run: ./train_model.sh 0.544 2048 FoMoH 0
