Overview

Package tensor provides the core tensor types and operations for Born ML framework.

Package tensor provides the core tensor types and operations for Born ML framework.

Package tensor raw_ops provides type-specific tensor operations for ONNX inference. Type-specific implementations (Float32, Float64, Int32, Int64) are intentionally similar/duplicated for performance - generics would add overhead.

}

Backend defines the interface that all compute backends must implement. Backends handle the actual computation for tensor operations.

Implementations:

  • CPU: Pure Go with SIMD optimizations (TASK-003)
  • CUDA: NVIDIA GPU via driver API (Phase 2)
  • Vulkan: Cross-platform GPU compute (Phase 2)
  • Metal: Apple GPU (Phase 2)
  • WebGPU: Browser/native GPU (Phase 2)

type BackendReleaser added in v0.9.23 

type BackendReleaser interface {
	// ReleaseBackendData releases backend-specific resources for a tensor.
	// For GPU backends: schedules the GPU buffer for deferred release.
	// For CPU backends: no-op.
	ReleaseBackendData(data any)

	// SetPersistent marks backend data as persistent, surviving ReclaimMemory.
	// For GPU backends: prevents the buffer from being released during bulk cleanup.
	// For CPU backends: no-op.
	SetPersistent(data any, persistent bool)

	// IsPersistent reports whether backend data is marked as persistent.
	// For GPU backends: returns the persistent flag of the GPU buffer.
	// For CPU backends: always returns false.
	IsPersistent(data any) bool
}

BackendReleaser is an optional interface for backends that manage device memory (GPU, accelerator). It provides backend-agnostic release and persistence control without callers having to know the concrete backend type.

Callers in autodiff, optimizers, and nn packages should prefer this interface over direct ReleaseGPU/GPUData/SetGPUPersistent calls (ADR-019 Phase 3). CPU backends implement all methods as no-ops.

type ConvDims added in v0.7.16 

type ConvDims struct {
	N, CIn, H, W    int // Input dimensions
	COut, KH, KW    int // Kernel dimensions
	HOut, WOut      int // Output dimensions
	Stride, Padding int // Convolution parameters
}

ConvDims holds pre-computed dimensions for 2D convolution operations.

type DType interface {
	~float32 | ~float64 | ~int32 | ~int64 | ~uint8 | ~bool
}

DType is a constraint for supported tensor data types. It uses Go generics to ensure compile-time type safety.

type DataType

DataType represents runtime type information for tensors. 

const (
	Float32 DataType = iota
	Float64
	Int32
	Int64
	Uint8
	Bool
)

Supported data types for tensors.

func (DataType) Size 

func (dt DataType) Size() int

Size returns the byte size of the data type.

func (DataType) String 

func (dt DataType) String() string

String returns a human-readable name for the data type.

	CPU Device = iota
	CUDA
	Vulkan
	Metal
	WebGPU
)

type Materializer added in v0.9.23 

type Materializer interface {
	Materialize(t *RawTensor) ([]byte, error)
}

Materializer converts backend-specific tensor data to CPU-resident bytes. Implemented by GPU backends to abstract the GPU→CPU readback path. The returned slice must have length shape.NumElements() * dtype.Size().

type MemoryReclaimer added in v0.9.1 

type MemoryReclaimer interface {
	// ReclaimMemory flushes pending GPU commands and triggers device-side
	// cleanup of buffers queued for deferred destruction. This should be
	// called after releasing a batch of intermediate tensors (e.g. at the
	// end of a training step) to ensure GPU memory is actually freed.
	ReclaimMemory()
}

MemoryReclaimer is an optional interface for backends that manage GPU or device memory. When implemented, callers can explicitly reclaim unreferenced buffers at well-defined lifecycle points (e.g. after Tape.Clear) instead of relying on the Go garbage collector. This is critical for GPU backends where Go GC has no awareness of device memory pressure (ADR-015).

Rules: 1. Both shapes must have at least 2 dimensions (matrix dimensions) 2. The inner dimensions must match: a[last] == b[second-to-last] (k1 == k2) 3. The batch dimensions (all dimensions except the last two) are broadcasted using standard broadcasting rules:

func (Shape) Validate 

func (s Shape) Validate() error

func (*Tensor[T, B]) Persist added in v0.9.1 

func (t *Tensor[T, B]) Persist() *Tensor[T, B]

Persist marks this tensor's GPU data as persistent, so it survives ReclaimMemory calls between training steps. Use for any tensor that must live across step boundaries: carry state, running statistics, auxiliary accumulators. Returns the tensor for chaining.

Without Persist, ReclaimMemory releases all non-persistent GPU tensors with refcount <= 1 — which includes carry state after ClearTape drops the tape's reference.
