Easy-to-use, class-balanced, cross-entropy and focal loss implementation for Pytorch.
</p>
Theory
When training dataset labels are imbalanced, one thing to do is to balance the loss across sample classes.
- First, the effective number of samples are calculated for all classes as:

- Then the class balanced loss function is defined as:

Installation
bash
pip install balanced-loss
Usage
- Standard losses:
python
import torch
from balanced_loss import Loss
outputs and labels
logits = torch.tensor([[0.78, 0.1, 0.05]]) 1 batch, 3 class
labels = torch.tensor([0]) 1 batch
focal loss
focal_loss = Loss(loss_type="focal_loss")
loss = focal_loss(logits, labels)
python
cross-entropy loss
ce_loss = Loss(loss_type="cross_entropy")
loss = ce_loss(logits, labels)
python
binary cross-entropy loss
bce_loss = Loss(loss_type="binary_cross_entropy")
loss = bce_loss(logits, labels)
- Class-balanced losses:
python
import torch
from balanced_loss import Loss
outputs and labels
logits = torch.tensor([[0.78, 0.1, 0.05]]) 1 batch, 3 class
labels = torch.tensor([0]) 1 batch
number of samples per class in the training dataset
samples_per_class = [30, 100, 25] 30, 100, 25 samples for labels 0, 1 and 2, respectively
class-balanced focal loss
focal_loss = Loss(
loss_type="focal_loss",
samples_per_class=samples_per_class,
class_balanced=True
)
loss = focal_loss(logits, labels)
python
class-balanced cross-entropy loss
ce_loss = Loss(
loss_type="cross_entropy",
samples_per_class=samples_per_class,
class_balanced=True
)
loss = ce_loss(logits, labels)
python
class-balanced binary cross-entropy loss
bce_loss = Loss(
loss_type="binary_cross_entropy",
samples_per_class=samples_per_class,
class_balanced=True
)
loss = bce_loss(logits, labels)
- Customize parameters:
python
import torch
from balanced_loss import Loss
outputs and labels
logits = torch.tensor([[0.78, 0.1, 0.05]]) 1 batch, 3 class
labels = torch.tensor([0])
number of samples per class in the training dataset
samples_per_class = [30, 100, 25] 30, 100, 25 samples for labels 0, 1 and 2, respectively
class-balanced focal loss
focal_loss = Loss(
loss_type="focal_loss",
beta=0.999, class-balanced loss beta
fl_gamma=2, focal loss gamma
samples_per_class=samples_per_class,
class_balanced=True
)
loss = focal_loss(logits, labels)
Improvements
What is the difference between this repo and vandit15's?
- This repo is a pypi installable package
- This repo implements loss functions as `torch.nn.Module`
- In addition to class balanced losses, this repo also supports the standard versions of the cross entropy/focal loss etc. over the same API
- All typos and errors in vandit15's source are fixed
