thrml-th 0.1.1

PyTorch + THRML interop shim (thrml-th).

thrml.th

thrml.th exposes THRML’s JAX-based samplers through a PyTorch-friendly API. The module supplies:

• enable() – registers the jax device type in PyTorch through torchax.
• compile(program, schedule, …) – turns a THRML sampling program into a torch.nn.Module.
• torch_view / jax_view – zero-copy conversions between JAX arrays and Torch tensors.
• RNG helpers (make_key, KeyStream) so repeated sampler calls stay deterministic when needed.

Everything necessary to use the package lives in this README and the example scripts.

Install

pip install thrml-th

Usage

import jax
import thrml
import thrml.th as thrml_th
from thrml.models import IsingEBM, IsingSamplingProgram, hinton_init

thrml_th.enable()

nodes = [thrml.SpinNode() for _ in range(4)]
program = IsingSamplingProgram(...)
schedule = thrml.SamplingSchedule(n_warmup=10, n_samples=16, steps_per_sample=2)

sampler = thrml_th.compile(program, schedule)
init_state = thrml_th.torch_view(tuple(hinton_init(
    jax.random.key(0), program.model, program.gibbs_spec.free_blocks, ()
)))

samples = sampler(init_state)

Examples

• examples/ising_sampler.py – builds an Ising chain, compiles it with thrml.th, prints magnetization stats.
• examples/pytorch_training_loop.py – drops a compiled sampler into a regular PyTorch training loop.
• examples/blockwise_sampler.py – compares contiguous vs. checkerboard nodes_to_sample partitions.

Run any script with python examples/<name>.py after installing the package and torchax dependency.
