Class FastElementSequence<T, U extends NdArray<T>>

java.lang.Object
org.tensorflow.ndarray.impl.sequence.FastElementSequence<T,U>
Type Parameters:
T - Type of the elements
U - Type of the NdArray with this sequence
All Implemented Interfaces:
Iterable<U>, NdArraySequence<U>

public final class FastElementSequence<T, U extends NdArray<T>> extends Object implements NdArraySequence<U>
A sequence recycling the same NdArray instance when iterating its elements
  • Constructor Details

    • FastElementSequence

      public FastElementSequence(org.tensorflow.ndarray.impl.AbstractNdArray<T,U> ndArray, int dimensionIdx, U element, DataBufferWindow<?> elementWindow)
  • Method Details

    • iterator

      public Iterator<U> iterator()
      Specified by:
      iterator in interface Iterable<T>
    • forEachIndexed

      public void forEachIndexed(BiConsumer<long[],U> consumer)
      Description copied from interface: NdArraySequence
      Visit each elements of this iteration and their respective coordinates.

      Important: the consumer method should not keep a reference to the coordinates as they might be mutable and reused during the iteration to improve performance.

      Specified by:
      forEachIndexed in interface NdArraySequence<T>
      Parameters:
      consumer - method to invoke for each elements
    • asSlices

      public NdArraySequence<U> asSlices()
      Description copied from interface: NdArraySequence
      Returns each element as a new slice.

      Unlike conventional Java collections, elements of a NdArraySequence are transient, i.e. new NdArray instances are allocated for each iteration. To improve performance, the same instance can be recycled to view all elements of this sequence, using a DataBufferWindow.

      In some cases though, it might be preferable to disable such optimizations to ensure that each element returned is a new slice of the original array. For example, if one or more elements visited must live beyond the scope of the sequence iteration, asSlices() makes sure that all elements returned by the sequence are unique instances.

          final List<IntNdArray> vectors = new ArrayList<>();
          IntNdArray matrix = NdArrays.ofInts(Shape.of(6, 6));
          ndArray.elements(0).forEach(e -> vectors::add);  // Not safe, as `e` might always be the same recycled instance
          ndArray.elements(0).asSlices().forEach(e -> vectors::add);  // Safe, each `e` is a distinct NdArray instance
      
      Specified by:
      asSlices in interface NdArraySequence<T>
      Returns:
      a sequence that returns each elements iterated as a new slice
