Utilities for Generation
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This page lists all the utility functions used by :meth:`~transformers.PretrainedModel.generate`,
:meth:`~transformers.PretrainedModel.greedy_search`, :meth:`~transformers.PretrainedModel.sample`,
:meth:`~transformers.PretrainedModel.beam_search`, :meth:`~transformers.PretrainedModel.beam_sample`, and
:meth:`~transformers.PretrainedModel.group_beam_search`.

Most of those are only useful if you are studying the code of the generate methods in the library.

LogitsProcessor
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A :class:`~transformers.LogitsProcessor` can be used to modify the prediction scores of a language model head for
generation.
