The function torch.nn.functional.softmax takes two parameters: input and dim.According to its documentation, the softmax operation is applied to all slices of input along the specified dim, and will rescale them so that the elements lie in the range (0, 1) and sum to 1.
I tried to find documents but cannot find anything about torch.softmax. What is the difference among torch.nn.Softmax, torch.nn.funtional.softmax, torch.softmax and torch.nn.functional.log_softmax? Examples are appreciated.
Latching on to what @jodag was already saying in his comment, and extending it a bit to form a full answer:. No, PyTorch does not automatically apply softmax, and you can at any point apply torch.nn.Softmax() as you want.
I have a problem with classifying fully connected deep neural net with 2 hidden layers for MNIST dataset in pytorch. I want to use tanh as activations in both hidden layers, but in the end, I shoul...
Which dimension should softmax be applied to ? This code : %reset -f import torch.nn as nn import numpy as np import torch my_softmax = nn.Softmax(dim=-1) mu, sigma = 0, 0.1 # mean and standard
nn.Softmax is a class. You can use it like this: import torch x = torch.tensor([10., 3., 8.]) softmax = torch.nn.Softmax(dim=0) probs = softmax(x)
Yes, NLLLoss takes log-probabilities (log(softmax(x))) as input.Why?. Because if you add a nn.LogSoftmax (or F.log_softmax) as the final layer of your model's output, you can easily get the probabilities using torch.exp(output), and in order to get cross-entropy loss, you can directly use nn.NLLLoss.
The sigmoid (i.e. logistic) function is scalar, but when described as equivalent to the binary case of the softmax it is interpreted as a 2d function whose arguments have been pre-scaled by (and hence the first argument is always fixed at 0).
It's hard to say why it might be in the tutorial, but usually you have (batch_number, **your_data) shape as input in your network, output in case of classification usually has (batch_number, number_of_classes), and you're right that in that case you should use dim=1(or recommended way use even dim=-1 because you can have more complicated output, for example - (batch_number, some_more_data ...
Indeed, in the 2D case: row refers to axis=0, while column refers to axis=1.. The dim option specifies along which dimension the softmax is apply, i.e. summing back on that same axis will lead to 1s:
