This pull request provides a full implementation together with full docstrings and partial docs explaining the algorithm. We are merging it to receive early feedback from users and use it to prepare an improve docs version soon.
All APIs are unchanged, except for a new mode "alpha" provided for both DPP and k-DPP sampling. Internally, the vfx_sampling.py file was replaced with a more generic intermediate_sampling.py containing both vfx and alpha algorithms.
Implementation of the associated paper at NeurIPS '20 on fast exact DPP sampling without looking at all items .
