nnf_log_softmaxR Documentation

Log_softmax

Description

Applies a softmax followed by a logarithm.

Usage

nnf_log_softmax(input, dim = NULL, dtype = NULL)

Arguments

input

(Tensor) input

dim

(int) A dimension along which log_softmax will be computed.

dtype

(torch.dtype, optional) the desired data type of returned tensor. If specified, the input tensor is casted to dtype before the operation is performed. This is useful for preventing data type overflows. Default: NULL.

Details

While mathematically equivalent to log(softmax(x)), doing these two operations separately is slower, and numerically unstable. This function uses an alternative formulation to compute the output and gradient correctly.
