Hi, I am trying to calculate the hessian of a function using DifferentitationInterface.jl with Mooncake as the backend. The calculation of the jacobian this way is very fast - both in the preparation stage and the actual evaluation (I have been unable to use Enzyme.jl to do this - In forward mode, …

Hessian preparation using DifferentationInterface and Mooncake throws a stackoverflow error

Sadly, Mooncake does not currently support differentiating itself, so it’s not possible to use it to get the Hessian.
