Label Ranking Loss

Module Interface

class torchmetrics.classification.MultilabelRankingLoss(num_labels, ignore_index=None, validate_args=True, **kwargs)

Computes the label ranking loss for multilabel data [1]. The score is corresponds to the average number of label pairs that are incorrectly ordered given some predictions weighted by the size of the label set and the number of labels not in the label set. The best score is 0.

Accepts the following input tensors:

• preds (float tensor): (N, C, ...). Preds should be a tensor containing probabilities or logits for each observation. If preds has values outside [0,1] range we consider the input to be logits and will auto apply sigmoid per element.

• target (int tensor): (N, C, ...). Target should be a tensor containing ground truth labels, and therefore only contain {0,1} values (except if ignore_index is specified).

Additional dimension ... will be flattened into the batch dimension.

Parameters

• preds – Tensor with predictions

• target – Tensor with true labels

• num_labels (int) – Integer specifing the number of labels

• ignore_index (Optional[int]) – Specifies a target value that is ignored and does not contribute to the metric calculation

• validate_args (bool) – bool indicating if input arguments and tensors should be validated for correctness. Set to False for faster computations.

Example

>>> from torchmetrics.classification import MultilabelRankingLoss
>>> _ = torch.manual_seed(42)
>>> preds = torch.rand(10, 5)
>>> target = torch.randint(2, (10, 5))
>>> metric = MultilabelRankingLoss(num_labels=5)
>>> metric(preds, target)
tensor(0.4167)
