tf2 Circle Loss implement

An unofficial Tensorflow2 implementation of the paper Circle Loss: A Unified Perspective of Pair Similarity Optimization

The interpretation of this paper is recorded in this blog

Add implementation of the paper Proxy Anchor Loss for Deep Metric Learning

The interpretation of this paper is recorded in this blog

  • Support class-level labels
  • Support Sparse class-level labels
  • Support pair-wise labels
  • Verified by experiment

Usage

from circle_loss import SparseCircleLoss, CircleLoss, PairCircleLoss

# General usage
model.compile(
      loss=CircleLoss(gamma=64, margin=0.25),
      optimizer=k.optimizers.Adam(),
      metrics=[k.metrics.CategoricalAccuracy('acc')])
# For Sparse Categorical such as face recognition 
# NOTE need set `batch_size`
model.compile(
      loss=SparseCircleLoss(gamma=64, margin=0.25, batch_size=batch_size),
      optimizer=k.optimizers.Adam(),
      metrics=[k.metrics.SparseCategoricalAccuracy('acc')])

NOTE: In order to speed up the loss function, SparseCircleLoss does not support dynamic batch_size. if you need dynamic batch_size can refer from this issue

Experiment

Using cifar10 data set for classification experiment, circle loss is better than am softmax loss. (Python 3.7.4, tensorflow 2.1)

python ./main.py
Softmax evaluate:
10000/10000 [==============================] - 2s 177us/sample - loss: 1.5902 - acc: 0.7456
Am Softmax evaluate:
10000/10000 [==============================] - 2s 187us/sample - loss: 5.8502 - acc: 0.7727
Circle Loss evaluate:
10000/10000 [==============================] - 0s 40us/sample - loss: 12.5618 - acc: 0.8344

You can test loss fuction:

python ./circle_loss.py
circle loss:
 [ 80.482956 284.16852 62.08397  87.57021 192.4977   87.34067 119.77495 41.9718 ]
sparse circle loss:
 [ 80.48296 284.16852  62.08397  87.57022 192.4977   87.34067 119.77495 41.9718 ]
pair circle loss:
 [ 80.48296 284.16852  62.08397  87.57022 192.4977   87.34067 119.77495 41.9718 ]

Known issues

  1. When I set last Dense layer unit=3 for visualization emmbeding, I found that when the dimension of hidden space is small, the effect of circle loss is very poor. The effect of am softmax loss is reduced.

    python ./main_emmbed.py
Am Softmax evaluate:
10000/10000 [==============================] - 0s 25us/sample - loss: 8.9257 - acc: 0.7404
Circle Loss evaluate:
10000/10000 [==============================] - 0s 29us/sample - loss: 25.2796 - acc: 0.4561

    It can be found that the classification vector of circle loss is not effectively separated:

  2. The loss function used for sparse labels on circle_loss.py line 124 has a numerical overflow problem, so I used a slower method.

    If there is a better method, you can contact me.

    def call(self, y_true: tf.Tensor, y_pred: tf.Tensor) -> tf.Tensor:
    idxs = tf.concat([self.batch_idxs, tf.cast(y_true, tf.int32)], 1)
    sp = tf.expand_dims(tf.gather_nd(y_pred, idxs), 1)

    alpha_p = tf.nn.relu(self.O_p - tf.stop_gradient(sp))
    alpha_n = tf.nn.relu(tf.stop_gradient(y_pred) - self.O_n)
    alpha_n_for_p = tf.expand_dims(tf.gather_nd(alpha_n, idxs), 1)

    r_sp_m = alpha_p * (sp - self.Delta_p)
    r_sn_m = alpha_n * (y_pred - self.Delta_n)
    _Z = tf.concat([r_sn_m, r_sp_m], 1)
    _Z = _Z * self.gamma
    # sum all similarity
    logZ = tf.math.reduce_logsumexp(_Z, 1, keepdims=True)
    # remove sn_p from all sum similarity
    # TODO This line will be numerical overflow, Need a more numerically safe method
    logZ = logZ + tf.math.log(1 - tf.math.exp(
        (alpha_n_for_p * (sp - self.Delta_n)) * self.gamma - logZ))

    return -r_sp_m * self.gamma + logZ
