- FastBPETrainer flattens words into byte tuples and counts word frequencies, avoiding repeated graph traversal - Pair counting operates on word-freq dict instead of full corpus - Produces identical merges to graph-based BPE (tested) - Significantly faster on repeated text patterns Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Closing — if we want a flat word-frequency BPE implementation, we'd just use HuggingFace tokenizers directly. |
