8 mar 2022 · Learn the math and PyTorch implementations of two closely related loss functions: cross-entropy and negative log-likelihood. See how they differ in the expected input values and the masking principle.
13 sie 2019 · Learn what negative log likelihood (NLL) is, how it is used as a loss function for machine learning models, and why it is numerically stable. See examples of NLL calculation and comparison with cross entropy loss.
Interpreting negative log-probability as information content or surprisal, the support (log-likelihood) of a model, given an event, is the negative of the surprisal of the event, given the model: a model is supported by an event to the extent that the event is unsurprising, given the model.
13 sie 2017 · Learn how the softmax function and the negative log-likelihood loss function are related and how to compute their derivatives for backpropagation. See examples, plots and equations for multi-class learning problems.
3 wrz 2016 · Negative Log Likelihood (NLL) is a measure of how well a model fits the data. It is the negative logarithm of the likelihood function, which is the probability of the data given the model parameters. See how NLL is calculated and interpreted for different regression models and data sets.
31 sie 2021 · The log-likelihood value of a regression model is a way to measure the goodness of fit for a model. The higher the value of the log-likelihood, the better a model fits a dataset. The log-likelihood value for a given model can range from negative infinity to positive infinity.
Learn about the negative log likelihood function, a common cost function for machine learning and Bayesian classification. Find out how to minimize it using gradient descent, Newton's method, or regularization.
