Fractional Neural Networks API Reference
ML layers, spectral autograd, stochastic memory sampling, and probabilistic fractional orders.
Spectral Autograd
Spectral fractional calculus utilities for ML integration.
This module provides a small, self-contained implementation that satisfies the expectations encoded in the extensive test-suite that accompanies the library. It focuses on three primary responsibilities:
Safe FFT utilities with backend selection and graceful fallbacks.
Spectral fractional derivative helpers that operate on PyTorch tensors while remaining differentiable with respect to both the input and the fractional order parameter
alpha.Thin neural-network wrappers (layers, learnable alpha parameters, and simple network scaffolding) that integrate the derivative into PyTorch models.
The goal is functional correctness and API compatibility rather than raw numerical performance; consequently many routines favour clarity and predictability over micro-optimisation. Every public utility is intentionally simple and well-behaved so that the surrounding tests can exercise a broad range of scenarios (different dtypes, devices, edge-cases, etc.).
- hpfracc.ml.spectral_autograd.set_fft_backend(backend)[source]
Select the preferred FFT backend.
- Parameters:
backend (str) – One of the identifiers listed in
_ALLOWED_BACKENDS. The value is stored verbatim (after lower-casing) for retrieval viaget_fft_backend(), while internal helpers map it to the effective behaviour (Torch FFT, NumPy FFT, robust fallback, etc.).- Return type:
- hpfracc.ml.spectral_autograd.get_fft_backend()[source]

Tensor Operations
Unified Tensor Operations for Multi-Backend Support
This module provides consistent tensor operations across PyTorch, JAX, and a NumPy-backed “NUMBA lane” (arrays are NumPy; numba is a compiler elsewhere), enabling seamless switching between frameworks while maintaining the same API.
- class hpfracc.ml.tensor_ops.TensorOps(backend=None)[source]
Bases:
objectUnified tensor operations across different backends.
Notes
AUTO is resolved to a concrete, installed backend during __init__.
NUMBA lane uses NumPy arrays (numba itself is not a tensor library).
JAX random ops require a PRNG key; pass via kwargs (key=…).
- Parameters:
backend (BackendType | str | None)
- __init__(backend=None)[source]
- Parameters:
backend (BackendType | str | None)
- _resolve_backend(backend, backend_manager)[source]
Pick a concrete, installed backend with sensible fallbacks. Priority:
explicit backend (if not AUTO) when installed
backend_manager.active_backend (if not AUTO) when installed
fallback order: TORCH -> JAX -> NUMBA (NumPy)
- Parameters:
backend (BackendType | None)
- _get_tensor_lib_for_backend(backend)[source]
Get tensor library for a specific backend (imports guarded).
- Parameters:
backend (BackendType)
- Return type:
- no_grad()[source]
Context manager for disabling gradient computation. - PyTorch: torch.no_grad() - JAX: there is no true ‘no_grad’ context; we return a nullcontext().
Use jax.lax.stop_gradient at call sites if you need it.
NUMBA lane: nullcontext()
- repeat(tensor, repeats, dim=0)[source]
Repeat elements along a specified axis (element-wise repeat). For tiling the whole array shape, use tile(…) helper below.
- transpose(tensor, *args, **kwargs)[source]
- Transpose a tensor. Supports signatures:
transpose(tensor) for 2D: matrix transpose; otherwise reverse axes
transpose(tensor, dim0, dim1) : swap two axes (positional)
transpose(tensor, dim0=…, dim1=…) : swap two axes (keyword)
transpose(tensor, dims=(…)) : permute by dims
- hpfracc.ml.tensor_ops.get_tensor_ops(backend=None)[source]
Get the global tensor operations instance (resolves AUTO safely).
- Parameters:
backend (BackendType | None)
- Return type:
- hpfracc.ml.tensor_ops.create_tensor(data, **kwargs)[source]
Create a tensor using the current backend.
- hpfracc.ml.tensor_ops.switch_backend(backend)[source]
Switch to a different backend and update tensor operations.
- Parameters:
backend (BackendType)
- Return type:
None
