sympy2jax

Turn SymPy expressions into trainable JAX expressions. The output will be an Equinox module with all SymPy floats (integers, rationals, ...) as leaves. SymPy symbols will be inputs.

Optimise your symbolic expressions via gradient descent!

Installation

pip install sympy2jax

Requires:
Python 3.7+
JAX 0.3.4+
Equinox 0.5.3+
SymPy 1.7.1+.

Example

import jax
import sympy
import sympy2jax

x_sym = sympy.symbols("x_sym")
cosx = 1.0 * sympy.cos(x_sym)
sinx = 2.0 * sympy.sin(x_sym)
mod = sympy2jax.SymbolicModule([cosx, sinx])  # PyTree of input expressions

x = jax.numpy.zeros(3)
out = mod(x_sym=x)  # PyTree of results.
params = jax.tree_leaves(mod)  # 1.0 and 2.0 are parameters.
                               # (Which may be trained in the usual way for Equinox.)

Documentation

sympy2jax.SymbolicModule(expressions, extra_funcs=None, make_array=True)

Where:

• expressions is a PyTree of SymPy expressions.
• extra_funcs is an optional dictionary from SymPy functions to JAX operations, to extend the built-in translation rules.
• make_array is whether integers/floats/rationals should be stored as Python integers/etc., or as JAX arrays.

Instances can be called with key-value pairs of symbol-value, as in the above example.

Instances have a .sympy() method that translates the module back into a PyTree of SymPy expressions.

(That's literally the entire documentation, it's super easy.)
