Multi-Task Loss Balancing

Multi-task loss balancing aims to automatically set each task’s weight so that no single loss dominates training.

Surrogate Loss Theory

0-1 loss directly measures classification error but is discontinuous and non-convex, making optimization computationally hard.

Knowledge Distillation Loss

Knowledge distillation loss blends standard hard-label cross-entropy with a soft distribution match from a teacher using a temperature parameter.

Perceptual Loss & Feature Matching

Perceptual loss compares images in a deep network's feature space rather than raw pixels, which aligns better with human judgment of similarity.

Triplet Loss & Contrastive Loss

Triplet loss and contrastive loss are metric-learning objectives that teach a model to map similar items close together and dissimilar items far apart in an embedding space.

Focal Loss

Focal Loss reshapes cross-entropy so that hard, misclassified examples get more focus while easy, well-classified ones are down-weighted.

Huber Loss & Smooth L1

Huber loss behaves like mean squared error (quadratic) for small residuals and like mean absolute error (linear) for large residuals, making it both stable and robust.

Cross-Entropy Loss

Cross-entropy loss measures how well predicted probabilities match the true labels by penalizing confident wrong predictions heavily.
