If you have a look in the paper, the method they use &amp;quot;Proximal Policy Optimization&amp;quot; is a great example of differentiable programming that does not include a neural network. I actually realized this last month when I was preparing a talk on deep learning, because I thought it used deep neural nets in its…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1707.02286/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
