jax-fenics-adjoint · Build FEniCS Build Firedrake Coverage Status

This package enables use of FEniCS or Firedrake for solving differentiable variational problems in JAX.

Automatic tangent linear and adjoint solvers for FEniCS/Firedrake programs are derived with dolfin-adjoint/pyadjoint. These solvers make it possible to use JAX's forward and reverse Automatic Differentiation with FEniCS/Firedrake.

For using JAX-FEniCS without dolfin-adjoint (still differentiable with automatic tangent and adjoint solvers using UFL) check out jax-fenics.

Current limitations:

  • Composition of forward and reverse modes for higher-order derivatives is not implemented yet.
  • Differentiation with respect to mesh coordinates is not implemented yet.

Example

Here is the demonstration of solving the Poisson's PDE on 2D square domain and calculating the solution Jacobian matrix (du/df) using the reverse (adjoint) mode Automatic Differentiation.

import jax
import jax.numpy as np
from jax.config import config
config.update("jax_enable_x64", True)

import fenics
import fenics_adjoint
import ufl

from jaxfenics_adjoint import build_jax_fem_eval
from fecr import from_numpy

# Create mesh for the unit square domain
n = 10
mesh = fenics_adjoint.UnitSquareMesh(n, n)

# Define discrete function spaces and functions
V = fenics.FunctionSpace(mesh, "CG", 1)
W = fenics.FunctionSpace(mesh, "DG", 0)

# Define FEniCS template representation of JAX input
templates = (fenics_adjoint.Function(W),)

@build_jax_fem_eval(templates)
def fenics_solve(f):
    # This function inside should be traceable by fenics_adjoint
    u = fenics_adjoint.Function(V, name="PDE Solution")
    v = fenics.TestFunction(V)
    inner, grad, dx = ufl.inner, ufl.grad, ufl.dx
    F = (inner(grad(u), grad(v)) - f * v) * dx
    bcs = [fenics_adjoint.DirichletBC(V, 0.0, "on_boundary")]
    fenics_adjoint.solve(F == 0, u, bcs)
    return u

# build_jax_fem_eval is a wrapper decorator that registers `fenics_solve` for JAX

# Let's create a vector of ones with size equal to the number of cells in the mesh
f = np.ones(W.dim())
u = fenics_solve(f) # u is JAX's array
u_fenics = from_numpy(u, fenics.Function(V)) # we need to explicitly provide template function for conversion

# now we can calculate vector-Jacobian product with `jax.vjp`
jvp_result = jax.vjp(fenics_solve, f)[1](np.ones_like(u))

# or the full (dense) Jacobian matrix du/df with `jax.jacrev`
dudf = jax.jacrev(fenics_solve)(f)

# function `fenics_solve` maps R^200 (dimension of W) to R^121 (dimension of V)
# therefore the Jacobian matrix dimension is dim V x dim W
assert dudf.shape == (V.dim(), W.dim())
