through `streamer.put(token_ids)` and the streamer is responsible for any further processing.
            model_kwargs:
                Additional model specific keyword arguments will be forwarded to the `forward` function of the model.
                If model is an encoder-decoder model the kwargs should include `encoder_outputs`.

        Return:
            [`~generation.ContrastiveSearchDecoderOnlyOutput`], [`~generation.ContrastiveSearchEncoderDecoderOutput`]
            or `torch.LongTensor`: A `torch.LongTensor` containing the generated tokens (default behaviour) or a
            [`~generation.ContrastiveSearchDecoderOnlyOutput`] if `model.config.is_encoder_decoder=False` and
            `return_dict_in_generate=True` or a [`~generation.ContrastiveSearchEncoderDecoderOutput`] if
            `model.config.is_encoder_decoder=True`.

        Examples:
        ```python
        >>> from transformers import (
        ...     AutoTokenizer,
        ...     AutoModelForCausalLM,
        ...     StoppingCriteriaList,
        ...     MaxLengthCriteria,
        ... )

        >>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("facebook/opt-125m")
        >>> model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("facebook/opt-125m")
        >>> # set pad_token_id to eos_token_id because OPT does not have a PAD token
        >>> model.config.pad_token_id = model.config.eos_token_id
        >>> input_prompt = "DeepMind Company is"
        >>> input_ids = tokenizer(input_prompt, return_tensors="pt")
        >>> stopping_criteria = StoppingCriteriaList([MaxLengthCriteria(max_length=64)])
        >>> outputs = model.contrastive_search(
        ...     **input_ids, penalty_alpha=0.6, top_k=4, stopping_criteria=stopping_criteria
        ... )
        >>> tokenizer.batch_decode(outputs, skip_special_tokens=True)
