# tinker.types.SamplingParams

## *class* [**tinker.types.SamplingParams**](https://github.com/thinking-machines-lab/tinker/blob/main/src/tinker/types/_pydantic_types/sampling_params.py#L6)(*[BaseModel](https://github.com/thinking-machines-lab/tinker/blob/main/src/tinker/_models.py#L88)*)

**Fields:**

- [**max_tokens**](https://github.com/thinking-machines-lab/tinker/blob/main/src/tinker/types/_pydantic_types/sampling_params.py#L7) (*Optional[int]*) – Maximum number of tokens to generate
- [**seed**](https://github.com/thinking-machines-lab/tinker/blob/main/src/tinker/types/_pydantic_types/sampling_params.py#L10) (*Optional[int]*) – Random seed for reproducible generation
- [**stop**](https://github.com/thinking-machines-lab/tinker/blob/main/src/tinker/types/_pydantic_types/sampling_params.py#L13) (*Union\[str, Sequence[str], Sequence[int], None\]*) – Stop sequences for generation
- [**temperature**](https://github.com/thinking-machines-lab/tinker/blob/main/src/tinker/types/_pydantic_types/sampling_params.py#L16) (*float*) – Sampling temperature
- [**top_k**](https://github.com/thinking-machines-lab/tinker/blob/main/src/tinker/types/_pydantic_types/sampling_params.py#L19) (*int*) – Top-k sampling parameter (-1 for no limit)
- [**top_p**](https://github.com/thinking-machines-lab/tinker/blob/main/src/tinker/types/_pydantic_types/sampling_params.py#L22) (*float*) – Nucleus sampling probability
