"""
    back!(model, ΔY, X...) => ΔX

Backpropagate the gradient `ΔY` through the model `model`, accumulating the
gradients of any parameters. Returns the gradient of the input `X`. Gradients
may be arrays or tuples of arrays (for multiple inputs/outputs).
"""

"""
    update!(model, η) => m

Update the parameters of the model `m` using the accumulated gradients from
`back!`, using the learning rate `η`.
"""
update!(m, η) = m

"""
    graph(model) => ::IVertex{Any} | nothing

Returns the graph representation of the model, if any. May be used for
compilation, generating symbolic gradients, etc.
