Type annotations and runtime checking for shape and dtype of JAX arrays, and PyTrees.

jaxtyping

Type annotations and runtime checking for:

1. shape and dtype of JAX arrays;
2. PyTrees.

For example:

from jaxtyping import f32, PyTree

def matrix_multiply(x: f32["dim1 dim2"], y: f32["dim2 dim3"]) -> f32["dim1 dim3"]:
    ...

def accepts_pytree_of_ints(x: PyTree[int]):
    ...

def accepts_pytree_of_arrays(x: PyTree[f32["batch c1 c2"]]):
    ...

Installation

pip install jaxtyping

Requires JAX 0.3.4+.

Also install your favourite runtime type-checking package. The two most popular are typeguard (which exhaustively checks every argument) and beartype (which checks random pieces of arguments).
