CausalVariant
- class tensorplay.nn.attention.bias.CausalVariant(*values)[source]
Enum for causal variants used in attention mechanisms.
Defines two types of causal biases:
UPPER_LEFT: Represents upper-left triangular bias for standard causal attention. The equivalent code for constructing this bias is:tensorplay.tril(tensorplay.ones(size, dtype=tensorplay.bool))For instance, with
shape=(3,4), the materialized bias tensor will be:[[1, 0, 0, 0], [1, 1, 0, 0], [1, 1, 1, 0]]LOWER_RIGHT: Represents lower-right triangular bias, the include values are aligned to the lower right corner of the matrix.The equivalent code for constructing this bias is:
diagonal_offset = size[1] - size[0] tensorplay.tril( tensorplay.ones(size, dtype=tensorplay.bool), diagonal=diagonal_offset, )For instance, with
shape=(3,4), the materialized bias tensor will be:[[1, 1, 0, 0], [1, 1, 1, 0], [1, 1, 1, 1]]Note that these variants are equivalent to each other when the sequence lengths of the query and key/value tensors are equal since the triangular matrix is square.
Warning
This enum is a prototype and subject to change.
- as_integer_ratio()
Return a pair of integers, whose ratio is equal to the original int.
The ratio is in lowest terms and has a positive denominator.
>>> (10).as_integer_ratio() (10, 1) >>> (-10).as_integer_ratio() (-10, 1) >>> (0).as_integer_ratio() (0, 1)
- bit_count()
Number of ones in the binary representation of the absolute value of self.
Also known as the population count.
>>> bin(13) '0b1101' >>> (13).bit_count() 3
- bit_length()
Number of bits necessary to represent self in binary.
>>> bin(37) '0b100101' >>> (37).bit_length() 6
- conjugate()
Returns self, the complex conjugate of any int.
- denominator
the denominator of a rational number in lowest terms
- classmethod from_bytes(bytes, byteorder='big', *, signed=False)
- imag
the imaginary part of a complex number
- is_integer()
Returns True. Exists for duck type compatibility with float.is_integer.
- numerator
the numerator of a rational number in lowest terms
- real
the real part of a complex number
- to_bytes(length=1, byteorder='big', *, signed=False)
