About loss function

Opened this issue 7 years ago · 1 comments

Hi!

I want to change multinomial cross entropy loss for affordance detection branch based on softmax into binary cross entropy loss based on sigmod, how can I do?

I try to change train.prototxt file as follow:
`layer {
name: "mask_score"
type: "Convolution"
bottom: "mask_deconv3" #
top: "mask_score"
param { lr_mult: 1.0 decay_mult: 1.0 }
param { lr_mult: 2.0 decay_mult: 0 }
convolution_param {
#num_output: 10 # 9 affordance classes + 1 background
#num_output: 1# output will be 1x1x14x14 --> for using SigmoidCrossEntropyLoss
num_output: 2# output will be 1x2x14x14 --> for using Softmax. Actually, binomial cross-entropy loss
#(sigmoid + cross entropy) = logistic regression = two classes softmax regression
kernel_size: 1 pad: 0
weight_filler {type: "gaussian" std: 0.01 } #weight_filler { type: "xavier" }
bias_filler { type: "constant" value: 0 }
}
}

layer {
name: "loss_mask"
type: "SoftmaxWithLoss"
#bottom: "mask_score_reshape"
bottom: "mask_score"
bottom: "mask_targets"
top: "loss_mask"
loss_weight: 3
loss_param {
ignore_label: -1
normalize: true
#normalize: false
}
propagate_down: true # backprop to prediction
propagate_down: false # don't backprop to labels
}`

and set the base_lr = le-10 (large base_lr doesn't work). But the loss is very random, sometimes is very big to 100 and sometimes is small to 6. I can't see a downward trend of the loss.

Hi @lsj910128 , have you solved this? I'm trying to do the same but cannot figure out how to do it. This is my prototxt file, note that I added an extra python layer (BinaryMaskLayer) to convert values of classes in a 2 array into binary values:
