`BaseVectors` is an abstract class to support the development of custom vectors
|
|
implementations.
|
|
|
|
For use in training with [`StaticVectors`](/api/architectures#staticvectors),
|
|
`get_batch` must be implemented. For improved performance, use efficient
|
|
batching in `get_batch` and implement `to_ops` to copy the vector data to the
|
|
current device. See an example custom implementation for
|
|
[BPEmb subword embeddings](/usage/embeddings-transformers#custom-vectors).

|
|
|
|
## BaseVectors.add {id="add",tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
Add a key to the table, if possible. If no keys can be added, return `-1`.
