soft_margin_loss

paddle.nn.functional. soft_margin_loss ( input, label, reduction='mean', name=None ) [source]

The API measures the soft margin loss between input predictions input and target labels label . It can be described as:

\[Out = log(1 + exp((-label * input)))\]
Parameters

  • input (Tensor) – The input predications tensor with shape: [N, *], N is batch_size, * means any number of additional dimensions. The input ranges from -inf to inf. Available dtype is float32, float64.

  • label (Tensor) – The target labels tensor with the same shape as input. The target labels which values should be numbers -1 or 1. Available dtype is int32, int64, float32, float64.

  • reduction (str, optional) – Indicate how to average the loss by batch_size, the candidates are 'none' | 'mean' | 'sum'. If reduction is 'none', the unreduced loss is returned; If reduction is 'mean', the reduced mean loss is returned; If reduction is 'sum', the summed loss is returned. Default is 'mean'.

  • name (str, optional) – Name for the operation (optional, default is None). For more information, please refer to Name.

Returns

If reduction is 'none', the shape of output is same as input , else the shape of output is [1].

Return type

Output (Tensor)

Examples

import paddle

input = paddle.to_tensor([[0.5, 0.6, 0.7],[0.3, 0.5, 0.2]], 'float32')
label = paddle.to_tensor([[1.0, -1.0, 1.0],[-1.0, 1.0, 1.0]], 'float32')
output = paddle.nn.functional.soft_margin_loss(input, label)
print(output)
# Tensor(shape=[1], dtype=float32, place=Place(gpu:0), stop_gradient=True,
#        [0.64022040])

input = paddle.uniform(shape=(5, 5), dtype="float32", min=0.1, max=0.8)
label = paddle.randint(0, 2, shape=(5, 5), dtype="int64")
label[label==0]=-1

output = paddle.nn.functional.soft_margin_loss(input, label, reduction='none')
print(output)
