<span id="the-problem"></span><h2>The Problem<a class="headerlink" href="#the-problem" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>A PaddlePaddle program, or a block, is a sequence of operators operating variables.  A training program needs to do three kinds of works:</p>
<ol class="simple">
<li>the forward pass, which computes intermediate results and the cost(s),</li>
<li>the backward pass, which derives gradients from intermediate results and costs, and</li>
<li>the optimization pass, which update model parameters to optimize the cost(s).</li>
</ol>
<p>These works rely on three kinds of operators:</p>
<ol class="simple">
<li>forward operators,</li>
<li>gradient operators, and</li>
<li>optimization operators.</li>
</ol>
<p>It&#8217;s true that users should be able to create all these operators manually by calling some low-level API, but it would be much more convenient if they could only describe the forward pass and let PaddlePaddle create the backward and optimization operators automatically.</p>
<p>In this design, we propose a high-level API that automatically derives the optimisation pass and operators from the forward pass.</p>
