tf.keras.losses.Reduction

Types of loss reduction.

Contains the following values:

• AUTO: Indicates that the reduction option will be determined by the usage context. For almost all cases this defaults to SUM_OVER_BATCH_SIZE. When used with tf.distribute.Strategy, outside of built-in training loops such as tf.keras compile and fit, we expect reduction value to be SUM or NONE. Using AUTO in that case will raise an error.

• NONE: No additional reduction is applied to the output of the wrapped loss function. When non-scalar losses are returned to Keras functions like fit/evaluate, the unreduced vector loss is passed to the optimizer but the reported loss will be a scalar value.

• SUM: Scalar sum of weighted losses.

• SUM_OVER_BATCH_SIZE: Scalar SUM divided by number of elements in losses. This reduction type is not supported when used with tf.distribute.Strategy outside of built-in training loops like tf.keras compile/fit.

  You can implement 'SUM_OVER_BATCH_SIZE' using global batch size like:

  with strategy.scope():
    loss_obj = tf.keras.losses.CategoricalCrossentropy(
        reduction=tf.keras.losses.Reduction.NONE)
    ....
    loss = tf.reduce_sum(loss_obj(labels, predictions)) *
        (1. / global_batch_size)
  

Please see the custom training guide for more details on this.
