MicroGrad.jl: Part 3 Automation with IRTools

Read Original

This technical article details Part 3 of a series on building an automatic differentiation system in Julia. It explains how to use the IRTools.jl package for metaprogramming to automatically generate a modified primal forward pass and its corresponding reverse differentiation (backward pass), improving upon a previous expression-based approach. The content is highly technical, covering Wengert lists, pullbacks, and intermediate representation (IR) manipulation.
