|
||
|
||
Vectors data is kept in the `Vectors.data` attribute, which should be an
|
||
instance of `numpy.ndarray` (for CPU vectors) or `cupy.ndarray` (for GPU
|
||
vectors). Multiple keys can be mapped to the same vector, and not all of the
|
||
rows in the table need to be assigned – so `vectors.n_keys` may be greater or
|
||
smaller than `vectors.shape[0]`.
|
||
|
||
## Vectors.\_\_init\_\_ {#init tag="method"}
|
||
|
||
Create a new vector store. You can set the vector values and keys directly on
|
||
initialization, or supply a `shape` keyword argument to create an empty table
|
||
you can add vectors to later.
|
||
|
||
> #### Example
|
||
>
|
||
> ```python
|
||
> from spacy.vectors import Vectors
|
||
>
|
||
> empty_vectors = Vectors(shape=(10000, 300))
|
||
>
|
||
> data = numpy.zeros((3, 300), dtype='f')
|
||
> keys = ["cat", "dog", "rat"]
|
||
> vectors = Vectors(data=data, keys=keys)
|
||
> ```

|
||
| `shape` | tuple | Size of the table as `(n_entries, n_columns)`, the number of entries and number of columns. Not required if you're initializing the object with `data` and `keys`. |

|
||
> ```python
|
||

|
||
> vector = numpy.random.uniform(-1, 1, (300,))
|
||
> nlp.vocab.vectors[cat_id] = vector

> #### Example
|
||

||
> ```python
|
||
> for key in nlp.vocab.vectors:
|
||
> print(key, nlp.vocab.strings[key])

|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Vectors.\_\_len\_\_ {#len tag="method"}
|
||
|
||
Return the number of vectors in the table.
|
||
|
||
> #### Example
|
||

||
> ```python
|
||

|
||
|
||
| Name | Type | Description |
|
||
| ----------- | ---- | ----------------------------------- |
|
||
| **RETURNS** | int | The number of vectors in the table. |
|
||
|
||
## Vectors.\_\_contains\_\_ {#contains tag="method"}
|
||
|
||
Check whether a key has been mapped to a vector entry in the table.
|
||
|
||
> #### Example
|
||
>
|
||
> ```python
|
||
> cat_id = nlp.vocab.strings["cat"]
|
||

## Vectors.add {#add tag="method"}
|
||
|
||
Add a key to the table, optionally setting a vector value as well. Keys can be
|
||
mapped to an existing vector by setting `row`, or a new vector can be added.
|
||
When adding unicode keys, keep in mind that the `Vectors` class itself has no
|
||
[`StringStore`](/api/stringstore), so you have to store the hash-to-string
|
||
mapping separately. If you need to manage the strings, you should use the
|
||
`Vectors` via the [`Vocab`](/api/vocab) class, e.g. `vocab.vectors`.
|
||
|
||
> #### Example
|
||
>
|
||
> ```python
|
||
> vector = numpy.random.uniform(-1, 1, (300,))
|
||
> cat_id = nlp.vocab.strings["cat"]
|
||
> nlp.vocab.vectors.add(cat_id, vector=vector)
|
||
> nlp.vocab.vectors.add("dog", row=0)
|
||
> ```
|
||
|
||
| Name | Type | Description |
|
||
| ----------- | ---------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |

||
| `vector` | `ndarray[ndim=1, dtype='float32']` | An optional vector to add for the key. |
|
||
| `row` | int | An optional row number of a vector to map the key to. |
|
||
| **RETURNS** | int | The row the vector was added to. |
|
||
|
||
## Vectors.resize {#resize tag="method"}
|
||
|
||
Resize the underlying vectors array. If `inplace=True`, the memory is
|
||
reallocated. This may cause other references to the data to become invalid, so
|
||
only use `inplace=True` if you're sure that's what you want. If the number of
|
||
vectors is reduced, keys mapped to rows that have been deleted are removed.
|
||
These removed items are returned as a list of `(key, row)` tuples.
|
||
|
||
> #### Example
|
||
>
|
||
> ```python
|
||
> removed = nlp.vocab.vectors.resize((10000, 300))
|

## Vectors.values {#values tag="method"}
|
||

performed in chunks, to avoid consuming too much memory. You can set the
