The problem of implementing AD is a bit difficult and can be handled better by dividing the problem into smaller parts. The following are the components of an AD system,
- Operations - Pre-defined mathematical operations(+, -, *, /, some transcendental functions).
- Expressions - A combination of operations on inputs.
- A framework to generate computation graph from expressions.
- Final AD on computation graphs.
We should move from 1-4 in a sequential manner.

Operations
Input
The following combinations of inputs are possible,
- 2 Tensors
- 1 Tensor and 1 Operator(base class for all operation classes) pointer
- 2 Operator pointers
- 1 Tensor
- 1 Operator pointer
Output - Class associated with each operator. This will help in retaining an expression un-evaluated.
A simple prototype for add operation,
class Add(Operator):
...
Add* add(const Tensor& a, const Tensor& b);
Add* add(const Operator* a, const Operator* b);
Class Design
Operator
public
Operator* args
;
There will be an identity operator which will act as a wrapper to tensor inputs so that uniformity can be attained in Operator
and it's child classes.
