Concurrent sampling from multiple multinomial distributions. *data* is an *n* dimensional array whose last dimension has length *k*, where *k* is the number of possible outcomes of each multinomial distribution. This operator will draw *shape* samples from each distribution. If shape is empty one sample will be drawn from each distribution. If *get_prob* is true, a second array containing log likelihood of the drawn samples will also be returned. This is usually used for reinforcement learning where you can provide reward as head gradient for this array to estimate gradient. Note that the input distribution must be normalized, i.e. *data* must sum to 1 along its last axis. Examples:: probs = `[ [0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4], [0.4, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1, 0] ] // Draw a single sample for each distribution sample_multinomial(probs) = [3, 0] // Draw a vector containing two samples for each distribution sample_multinomial(probs, shape=(2)) = `[ [4, 2], [0, 0] ] // requests log likelihood sample_multinomial(probs, get_prob=True) = [2, 1], [0.2, 0.3]

Draw random samples from an an approximately log-uniform or Zipfian distribution without replacement. This operation takes a 2-D shape `(batch_size, num_sampled)`, and randomly generates *num_sampled* samples from the range of integers [0, range_max) for each instance in the batch. The elements in each instance are drawn without replacement from the base distribution. The base distribution for this operator is an approximately log-uniform or Zipfian distribution: P(class) = (log(class + 2) - log(class + 1)) / log(range_max + 1) Additionaly, it also returns the number of trials used to obtain `num_sampled` samples for each instance in the batch. Example:: samples, trials = _sample_unique_zipfian(750000, shape=(4, 8192)) unique(samples[0]) = 8192 unique(samples[3]) = 8192 trials[0] = 16435 Defined in src/operator/random/unique_sample_op.cc:L66
