ferrox-models 0.12.0

//! Token sampling from a decoder's output logits: temperature, top-k,
//! top-p (nucleus), and repetition penalty, on top of the greedy argmax
//! ferrox previously always used unconditionally.
//!
//! `crate::speculative` verifies draft tokens against
//! [`sampling_distribution`] -- the exact distribution [`Sampler`]
//! draws from for a given `SamplingParams` -- so speculation is
//! lossless with respect to whatever sampling configuration the caller
//! asked for, rather than only at temperature 0.
//!
//! No external `rand` dependency: a small xorshift64* generator (the
//! same algorithm `Decoder::new_random_small`'s test-only `Lcg` already
//! uses in `decoder.rs`) is enough for sampling and keeps the
//! dependency tree the same minimal, pure-Rust shape as the rest of
//! this crate.

/// Sampling parameters for one generation request. `temperature <= 0.0`
/// means "sample nothing, take the greedy argmax" -- the same
/// deterministic behavior ferrox always had before this module existed.
