"""
An abstract class that can be used to sample candidates (either nodes or beams)
within `BeamSearch`.
A `Sampler` just has three methods, `init_state()`, `sample_nodes()` and `sample_beams()`.
`init_state()` takes three arguments:
- a tensor of starting log probs with shape `(batch_size,, num_classes)`,
- the batch size, an int,
- and the number of classes, also an int.
It returns a state dictionary with any state tensors needed for subsequent
calls to `sample_nodes()` and `sample_beams()`.
By default this method just returns an empty dictionary.
Both `sample_nodes()` and `sample_beams()` should take three arguments:
- tensor of normalized log probabilities with shape `(batch_size, num_examples)`,
- an integer representing the number of samples to take for each example in the batch,
- and a state dictionary which could contain any tensors needed for the `Sampler` to keep
track of state.
For `sample_nodes()`, `num_examples = num_classes`, but for `sample_beams`,
`num_examples = beam_size * per_node_beam_size`.
The return value should be a tuple containing:
- a tensor of log probabilities of the sampled examples with shape `(batch_size, num_samples)`,
- a tensor of indices of the sampled examples with shape `(batch_size, num_samples)`,
- and the updated state dictionary.
A default implementation of `sample_beams` is provided, which just deterministically
picks the `k` examples with highest log probability.

class Constraint(Registrable):
"""
An abstract class that can be used to enforce constraints on the output predictions
by manipulating the class log probabilities during beam search.
A `Constraint` just has three methods that need to be implemented by subclasses:
`init_state()`, `apply()` and `_update_state()`.
`init_state()` takes one argument:
- the batch size, an int
It returns a constraint state, which is a nested list of dictionaries, with any state needed for subsequent
calls to `apply()` and `update_state()`. The length of the outer list should be equal to `batch_size`.
Each inner list should be of length 1.
`apply()` takes two arguments:
- the constraint state, which is a nested list of dictionaries. The length of the outer list is `batch_size`
and the length of each inner list is `beam_size` except on the first time `apply()` is called when it is 1.
- `class_log_probabilities`, a tensor of shape `(batch_size, beam_size, num_classes)` that contains the
log probabilities for the classes during search. The first time `apply()` is called, `beam_size = 1`.
The `apply()` method should return new `class_log_probabilities` that enforce the constraint
for this step of beam search. For instance, it may prevent a specific class from being selected by setting
the corresponding log probability to a negligible value such as `float("-inf")` or
`min_value_of_dtype(class_log_probabilities.dtype)`.
`_update_state()` takes two arguments:
- the copied parent constraint state, which is a nested list of dictionaries. `state[i][j]` contains the
copied state for the parent of `last_prediction[i, j]`. It is unique to that batch and beam, so it can be
directly edited in-place without affecting the others.
- last_prediction, a tensor of shape `(batch_size, beam_size)` containing the predictions from the last
step of beam search.
The `_update_state()` function should return a new constraint state, a nested list of dictionaries of
length `batch_size` and inner list of length `beam_size`, one for each of the predictions in `last_prediction`.

Given a starting state and a step function, apply beam search to find the
most likely target sequences.
!!! Note
If your step function returns `-inf` for some log probabilities
(like if you're using a masked log-softmax) then some of the "best"
sequences returned may also have `-inf` log probability. Specifically
this happens when the beam size is smaller than the number of actions
with finite log probability (non-zero probability) returned by the step function.
Therefore if you're using a mask you may want to check the results from `search`
and potentially discard sequences with non-finite log probability.
# Parameters
start_predictions : `torch.Tensor`
A tensor containing the initial predictions with shape `(batch_size,)`.
Usually the initial predictions are just the index of the "start" token
in the target vocabulary.
start_state : `StateType`
The initial state passed to the `step` function. Each value of the state dict
should be a tensor of shape `(batch_size, *)`, where `*` means any other
number of dimensions.
step : `StepFunctionType`
A function that is responsible for computing the next most likely tokens,
given the current state and the predictions from the last time step.
The function should accept two or three arguments:
- a tensor of shape `(group_size,)` representing the index of the predicted
tokens from the last time step,
- the current state, a `StateType`, and
- optionally, the timestep, an `int`.
The `group_size` will be `batch_size * beam_size`, except in the initial
step, for which it will just be `batch_size`.
The function is expected to return a tuple, where the first element
is a tensor of shape `(group_size, target_vocab_size)` containing
the log probabilities of the tokens for the next step, and the second
element is the updated state. The tensor in the state should have shape
`(group_size, *)`, where `*` means any other number of dimensions.

`Tuple[torch.Tensor, torch.Tensor]`
