Implementing Multiple Tapes

In the following code snippet,

  1. We have defined two input variables x0 and x1 as constants.
  2. Then, we created two GradientTape instance using a single ‘with’ statement.
  3. Inside each GradientTape block, we watch the respective variable (x0 for tape0 and x1 for tape1) using the watch() method.
  4. We compute operations (y0 and y1) within each tape, which automatically records the computations for gradient calculation.
  5. After exiting the GradientTape blocks, we compute gradients separately for each variable using their respective tapes.
  6. Finally, we print the gradients.

Python3




import tensorflow as tf
 
# Define input variables
x0 = tf.constant(5.0)
x1 = tf.constant(8.0)
 
# Create multiple GradientTape instances
with tf.GradientTape() as tape0, tf.GradientTape() as tape1:
    # Watch variables for gradients
    tape0.watch(x0)
    tape1.watch(x1)
 
    # Compute operations for each tape
    y0 = tf.math.sin(x0)
    y1 = tf.nn.sigmoid(x1)
 
# Compute gradients separately for each tape
dy0_dx0 = tape0.gradient(y0, x0)
dy1_dx1 = tape1.gradient(y1, x1)
 
# Print gradients
print("Gradient of y0 with respect to x0:", dy0_dx0.numpy())
print("Gradient of y1 with respect to x1:", dy1_dx1.numpy())


Output:

Gradient of y0 with respect to x0: 0.2836622
Gradient of y1 with respect to x1: 0.00033522327
