mindspore.ops.LogSoftmax

class mindspore.ops.LogSoftmax(axis=- 1)

Log Softmax activation function.

Applies the Log Softmax function to the input tensor on the specified axis. Supposes a slice in the given axis, $x$ for each element $x_i$, the Log Softmax function is shown as follows:

$$\text{output}(x_i)=\log \left(\frac{\exp (x_i)}{\sum _{j=0}^{N-1}\exp (x_j)}\right),$$

where $N$ is the length of the Tensor.

Parameters

axis (int) – The axis to perform the Log softmax operation. Default: -1.

Inputs:

• logits (Tensor) - Tensor of shape $(N,\ast )$, where $\ast$ means, any number of additional dimensions, with float16 or float32 data type.

Outputs:

Tensor, with the same type and shape as the logits.

Raises

• TypeError – If axis is not an int.

• TypeError – If dtype of logits is neither float16 nor float32.

• ValueError – If axis is not in range [-len(logits.shape), len(logits.shape)).

Supported Platforms:

Ascend GPU CPU

Examples

>>> logits = Tensor(np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]), mindspore.float32)
>>> log_softmax = ops.LogSoftmax()
>>> output = log_softmax(logits)
>>> print(output)
