Creates a criterion that optimizes a two-class classification logistic loss between input tensor \(x\) and target tensor \(y\) (containing 1 or -1).
nn_soft_margin_loss(reduction = "mean")
(string, optional): Specifies the reduction to apply to the output:
'none'
| 'mean'
| 'sum'
. 'none'
: no reduction will be applied,
'mean'
: the sum of the output will be divided by the number of
elements in the output, 'sum'
: the output will be summed.
Input: \((*)\) where \(*\) means, any number of additional dimensions
Target: \((*)\), same shape as the input
Output: scalar. If reduction
is 'none'
, then same shape as the input
$$ \mbox{loss}(x, y) = \sum_i \frac{\log(1 + \exp(-y[i]*x[i]))}{\mbox{x.nelement}()} $$
