disable padding.

[livc]

Hi, is there a fast way to disable padding to make sure all sentences in a batch have the same length? Thanks.

I set k = len(d) in https://github.com/zysite/biaffine-parser/blob/master/parser/utils/alg.py#L7 to make sure no padding.

No, this operation can't ensure no padding, since there is no guarantee that all sentences in a batch are in the same bucket.

So any suggestions?

Since sentences are variable-length, there's no way to totally avoid the padding. Actually, using kmeans algorithm can guarantee that all the sentences in a batch are roughly the same length.
