def nms(boxes, scores, iou_threshold):
    # type: (Tensor, Tensor, float)
    """
    Performs non-maximum suppression (NMS) on the boxes according
    to their intersection-over-union (IoU).

    NMS iteratively removes lower scoring boxes which have an
    IoU greater than iou_threshold with another (higher scoring)
    box.

    If multiple boxes have the exact same score and satisfy the IoU 
    criterion with respect to a reference box, the selected box is 
    not guaranteed to be the same between CPU and GPU. This is similar 
    to the behavior of argsort in PyTorch when repeated values are present.

    Parameters
    ----------
    boxes : Tensor[N, 4])
        boxes to perform NMS on. They
        are expected to be in (x1, y1, x2, y2) format
    scores : Tensor[N]
        scores for each one of the boxes
    iou_threshold : float
        discards all overlapping
        boxes with IoU > iou_threshold

    Returns
    -------
    keep : Tensor
        int64 tensor with the indices
        of the elements that have been kept
        by NMS, sorted in decreasing order of scores

    """
    Performs non-maximum suppression in a batched fashion.

    Each index value correspond to a category, and NMS
    will not be applied between elements of different categories.

    Parameters
    ----------
    boxes : Tensor[N, 4]
        boxes where NMS will be performed. They
        are expected to be in (x1, y1, x2, y2) format
    scores : Tensor[N]
