Abstract

Previous work has shown that reverse differential categories give an abstract setting for gradient-based learning of functions between Euclidean spaces. However, reverse differential categories are not suited to handle gradient-based learning for functions between more general spaces such as smooth manifolds. In this paper, we propose a setting to handle this, which we call reverse tangent categories: tangent categories with an involution operation for their differential bundles.
