JLIR: A Julia-Native MLIR-Inspired Intermediate Representation with Automatic JACC Kernel Extraction

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 4, 2026 · UTC

The Multi-Level Intermediate Representation (MLIR) has made reusable compiler infrastructure practical for domain-specific computation. However, MLIR's strong compile-time type requirements and low-level (C++) extension model can be a poor match for high-level, dynamically specialized languages such as Julia. MLIR has several drawbacks for dynamic programming languages in terms of the type system and level of abstraction. It is thus extremely challenging for non-compiler or scientific computing users to introduce new programming abstractions and express algorithm implementations in a form that
