[docs]class FairseqIncrementalDecoder(FairseqDecoder):
"""Base class for incremental decoders.
Incremental decoding is a special mode at inference time where the Model
only receives a single timestep of input corresponding to the previous
output token (for input feeding) and must produce the next output
*incrementally*. Thus the model must cache any long-term state that is
needed about the sequence, e.g., hidden states, convolutional states, etc.
Compared to the standard :class:`FairseqDecoder` interface, the incremental
decoder interface allows :func:`forward` functions to take an extra keyword
argument (*incremental_state*) that can be used to cache state across
time-steps.
The :class:`FairseqIncrementalDecoder` interface also defines the
:func:`reorder_incremental_state` method, which is used during beam search
to select and reorder the incremental state based on the selection of beams.
To learn more about how incremental decoding works, refer to `this blog
<http://www.telesens.co/2019/04/21/understanding-incremental-decoding-in-fairseq/>`_.
