class GradientTape(object):
  """Record operations for automatic differentiation.

  Operations are recorded if they are executed within this context manager and
  at least one of their inputs is being "watched".

  Trainable variables (created by `tf.Variable` or `tf.compat.v1.get_variable`,
  where `trainable=True` is default in both cases) are automatically watched.
  Tensors can be manually watched by invoking the `watch` method on this context
  manager.

  For example, consider the function `y = x * x`. The gradient at `x = 3.0` can
  be computed as:

  >>> x = tf.constant(3.0)
  >>> with tf.GradientTape() as g:
  ...   g.watch(x)
  ...   y = x * x
  >>> dy_dx = g.gradient(y, x)
  >>> print(dy_dx)
  tf.Tensor(6.0, shape=(), dtype=float32)

  GradientTapes can be nested to compute higher-order derivatives. For example,

  >>> x = tf.constant(5.0)
  >>> with tf.GradientTape() as g:
  ...   g.watch(x)
  ...   with tf.GradientTape() as gg:
  ...     gg.watch(x)
  ...     y = x * x
  ...   dy_dx = gg.gradient(y, x)  # dy_dx = 2 * x
  >>> d2y_dx2 = g.gradient(dy_dx, x)  # d2y_dx2 = 2
  >>> print(dy_dx)
  tf.Tensor(10.0, shape=(), dtype=float32)
  >>> print(d2y_dx2)
  tf.Tensor(2.0, shape=(), dtype=float32)

  By default, the resources held by a GradientTape are released as soon as
  GradientTape.gradient() method is called. To compute multiple gradients over
  the same computation, create a persistent gradient tape. This allows multiple
  calls to the gradient() method as resources are released when the tape object
  is garbage collected. For example:

  >>> x = tf.constant(3.0)
  >>> with tf.GradientTape(persistent=True) as g:
  ...   g.watch(x)
  ...   y = x * x
  ...   z = y * y
  >>> dz_dx = g.gradient(z, x)  # (4*x^3 at x = 3)
  >>> print(dz_dx)
  tf.Tensor(108.0, shape=(), dtype=float32)
  >>> dy_dx = g.gradient(y, x)
  >>> print(dy_dx)
  tf.Tensor(6.0, shape=(), dtype=float32)

  By default GradientTape will automatically watch any trainable variables that
  are accessed inside the context. If you want fine grained control over which
  variables are watched you can disable automatic tracking by passing
  `watch_accessed_variables=False` to the tape constructor:

  >>> x = tf.Variable(2.0)
  >>> w = tf.Variable(5.0)
  >>> with tf.GradientTape(
  ...     watch_accessed_variables=False, persistent=True) as tape:
  ...   tape.watch(x)
  ...   y = x ** 2  # Gradients will be available for `x`.
  ...   z = w ** 3  # No gradients will be available as `w` isn't being watched.
  >>> dy_dx = tape.gradient(y, x)
  >>> print(dy_dx)
  tf.Tensor(4.0, shape=(), dtype=float32)
  >>> # No gradients will be available as `w` isn't being watched.
  >>> dz_dy = tape.gradient(z, w)
  >>> print(dz_dy)
  None

  Note that when using models you should ensure that your variables exist when
  using `watch_accessed_variables=False`. Otherwise it's quite easy to make your
  first iteration not have any gradients:

  ```python
  a = tf.keras.layers.Dense(32)
  b = tf.keras.layers.Dense(32)

  with tf.GradientTape(watch_accessed_variables=False) as tape:
    tape.watch(a.variables)  # Since `a.build` has not been called at this point
                             # `a.variables` will return an empty list and the
                             # tape will not be watching anything.
    result = b(a(inputs))
    tape.gradient(result, a.variables)  # The result of this computation will be
                                        # a list of `None`s since a's variables
                                        # are not being watched.
  ```

  Note that only tensors with real or complex dtypes are differentiable.

    for the definition of a Jacobian. This function is essentially an efficient
    implementation of the following:

    `tf.stack([self.jacobian(y[i], x[i]) for i in range(x.shape[0])])`.

    Note that compared to `GradientTape.jacobian` which computes gradient of
    each output value w.r.t each input value, this function is useful when
    `target[i,...]` is independent of `source[j,...]` for `j != i`. This
    assumption allows more efficient computation as compared to
    `GradientTape.jacobian`. The output, as well as intermediate activations,
    are lower dimensional and avoid a bunch of redundant zeros which would
    result in the jacobian computation given the independence assumption.

    Note: Unless you set `persistent=True` a GradientTape can only be used to
    compute one set of gradients (or jacobians).

    Note: By default the batch_jacobian implementation uses parallel for (pfor),
    which creates a tf.function under the hood for each batch_jacobian call.
    For better performance, and to avoid recompilation and vectorization
    rewrites on each call, enclose GradientTape code in @tf.function.


    Example usage:

    ```python
    with tf.GradientTape() as g:
      x = tf.constant([[1., 2.], [3., 4.]], dtype=tf.float32)
      g.watch(x)
      y = x * x
    batch_jacobian = g.batch_jacobian(y, x)
    # batch_jacobian is [[[2,  0], [0,  4]], [[6,  0], [0,  8]]]
    ```

    Args:
      target: A tensor with rank 2 or higher and with shape [b, y1, ..., y_n].
        `target[i,...]` should only depend on `source[i,...]`.
      source: A tensor with rank 2 or higher and with shape [b, x1, ..., x_m].
      unconnected_gradients: a value which can either hold 'none' or 'zero' and
        alters the value which will be returned if the target and sources are
        unconnected. The possible values and effects are detailed in
        'UnconnectedGradients' and it defaults to 'none'.
      parallel_iterations: A knob to control how many iterations are dispatched
        in parallel. This knob can be used to control the total memory usage.
      experimental_use_pfor: If true, uses pfor for computing the Jacobian. Else
        uses a tf.while_loop.

    Returns:
      A tensor `t` with shape [b, y_1, ..., y_n, x1, ..., x_m] where `t[i, ...]`
      is the jacobian of `target[i, ...]` w.r.t. `source[i, ...]`, i.e. stacked
      per-example jacobians.

    Raises:
      RuntimeError: If called on a used, non-persistent tape.
      RuntimeError: If called on a non-persistent tape with eager execution
        enabled and without enabling experimental_use_pfor.
      ValueError: If vectorization of jacobian computation fails or if first
        dimension of `target` and `source` do not match.
