TorchJD provides a PyTorch library that computes per-objective Jacobians and aggregates them into update directions, implementing Jacobian descent with functions like autoja.jac, autoja.backward, autoja.jac_to_grad. The demo shows per-sample losses (batch size 16) producing a 16×param Jacobian, then applying an unconflicting projection to guarantee nonnegative inner product with every loss; library ships 15+ aggregation methods and plugs into standard optimizers. Paper: arXiv:2406.16232.
