Missing Rule for Roots.jl #2035
Comments
Looks like Roots.jl is missing a rule |
@mhauru can you reduce this to just the roots.jl call which errs? |
It's probably easiest to just switch to SimpleNonlinearSolve.jl? @avik-pal was adding a specialized adjoint for that case. We can do a PR to Bijectors? SciML/NonlinearSolve.jl#478 |
We switched to Roots.jl at some point since (Simple)NonlinearSolve.jl caused problems. IIRC Roots.jl was also more lightweight. It's just missing a rule which is available in closed form and implemented for the other supported AD backends. We don't rely on any generic adjoints in Roots.jl. |
That PR isn't 1-1 because it's comparing NonlinearSolve vs Roots, whereas BracketingNonlinearSolve (a simplified SimpleNonlinearSolve with only the bracketing methods?) is the direct comparison and that is a much smaller library? Also, you'd likely want to use ITP these days instead of Falsi in order to enforce robustness. |
BracketingNonlinearSolve didn't exist back then but it's still a heavier dependency than Roots.jl. Roots.jl also supports ITP. For a bit more context: Root finding is only needed for a specific method with a closed-form adjoint, so there's no need for very generic root-finding support. |
MWE:
Output:
Affects both forward and reverse mode. Enzyme current main branch.
