Difference between Tensorflow and Scikitlearn log_loss

Question

Hi, I'm trying to get into the tensor flow and feel a little stupid. Is log_loss in TF different from sklearn one?

Here are some lines from my code as I calculate:

from sklearn.metrics import log_loss

tmp = np.array(y_test)
y_test_t = np.array([tmp, -(tmp-1)]).T[0]

tf_log_loss = tf.losses.log_loss(predictions=tf.nn.softmax(logits), labels=tf_y)

with tf.Session() as sess:

    # training

    a = sess.run(tf.nn.softmax(logits), feed_dict={tf_x: xtest, keep_prob: 1.})
    print("    sk.log_loss: ", log_loss(y_test, a,eps=1e-7 ))
    print("    tf.log_loss: ", sess.run(tf_log_loss, feed_dict={tf_x: xtest, tf_y: y_test_t, keep_prob: 1.}))

Output i get

Epoch  7, Loss:     0.4875 Validation Accuracy: 0.818981
    sk.log_loss:  1.76533018874
    tf.log_loss:  0.396557
Epoch  8, Loss:     0.4850 Validation Accuracy: 0.820738
    sk.log_loss:  1.77217639627
    tf.log_loss:  0.393351
Epoch  9, Loss:     0.4835 Validation Accuracy: 0.823374
    sk.log_loss:  1.78479079656
    tf.log_loss:  0.390572

While seems to tf.log_lossconverge sk.log_loss.

Answer 1

I had the same problem. After searching for the source code tf.losses.log_loss, its key lines show that wat is coming:

losses = - math_ops.multiply(labels, math_ops.log(predictions + epsilon))
    - math_ops.multiply((1 - labels), math_ops.log(1 - predictions + epsilon))

log-loss (.. ), -.

( ), tf.nn.softmax_cross_entropy_with_logits ( ). , -:

loss = tf.reduce_sum(tf.multiply(- labels, tf.log(probs))) / len(probs)
