文章内容：如何在YOLOX官网代码中修改–置信度预测损失
环境：pytorch1.8
损失函数修改内容：
（1）置信度预测损失更换：二元交叉熵损失替换为FocalLoss或者VariFocalLoss
（2）定位损失更换：IOU损失替换为GIOU、CIOU、EIOU以及a-IOU系列
提示：使用之前可以先了解YOLOX及上述损失函数原理

使用方法：直接替换即可
代码修改过程：
1、置信度预测损失更换之FocalLoss（不需要创建新的py文件）
使用：直接在YOLOX-main/yolox/models/yolo_head.py的YOLOXHead类中创建focal_loss方法
（1）首先找到置信度预测损失计算位置loss_obj，并进行替换（位置在386-405行左右）
# loss_iou:定位损失；loss_obj：置信度预测损失；loss_cls：预测损失
loss_iou = (
self.iou_loss(bbox_preds.view(-1, 4)[fg_masks], reg_targets)
).sum() / num_fg
#loss_obj = (
# self.bcewithlog_loss(obj_preds.view(-1, 1), obj_targets)
#).sum() / num_fg
loss_obj = (
self.focal_loss(obj_preds.sigmoid().view(-1, 1), obj_targets)
).sum() / num_fg
loss_cls = (
self.bcewithlog_loss(
cls_preds.view(-1, self.num_classes)[fg_masks], cls_targets
)
).sum() / num_fg
（2）创建focal_loss方法，放到def get_l1_target（…）之前即可，代码如下：
def focal_loss(self, pred, gt):
pos_inds = gt.eq(1).float()
neg_inds = gt.eq(0).float()
pos_loss = torch.log(pred+1e-5) * torch.pow(1 - pred, 2) * pos_inds * 0.75
neg_loss = torch.log(1 - pred+1e-5) * torch.pow(pred, 2) * neg_inds * 0.25
loss = -(pos_loss + neg_loss)
return loss
2、置信度预测损失更换之VariFocalLoss（代码较多，所以额外创建新的py文件）
步骤一：YOLOX-main/yolox/models文件夹下创建varifocalloss.py文件，内容如下：
import torch.nn as nn
import torch.nn.functional as F
def reduce_loss(loss, reduction):
"""Reduce loss as specified.
Args:
loss (Tensor): Elementwise loss tensor.
reduction (str): Options are "none", "mean" and "sum".
Return:

"""
reduction_enum = F._Reduction.get_enum(reduction)
# none: 0, elementwise_mean:1, sum: 2
if reduction_enum == 0:
return loss
elif reduction_enum == 1:
return loss.mean()
elif reduction_enum == 2:
return loss.sum()

"""
# if weight is specified, apply element-wise weight
if weight is not None:
loss = loss * weight
# if avg_factor is not specified, just reduce the loss
if avg_factor is None:
loss = reduce_loss(loss, reduction)
else:
# if reduction is mean, then average the loss by avg_factor
if reduction == 'mean':
loss = loss.sum() / avg_factor
# if reduction is 'none', then do nothing, otherwise raise an error
elif reduction != 'none':
raise ValueError('avg_factor can not be used with reduction="sum"')
return loss
def varifocal_loss(pred,
target,
weight=None,
alpha=0.75,
gamma=2.0,
iou_weighted=True,

avg_factor=None):

"sum".

the loss. Defaults to None.
"""
# pred and target should be of the same size
assert pred.size() == target.size()
pred_sigmoid = pred.sigmoid()
target = target.type_as(pred)
if iou_weighted:
focal_weight = target * (target > 0.0).float() + \
alpha * (pred_sigmoid - target).abs().pow(gamma) * \
(target <= 0.0).float()
else:
focal_weight = (target > 0.0).float() + \
alpha * (pred_sigmoid - target).abs().pow(gamma) * \
(target <= 0.0).float()

return loss

assert reduction_override in (None, 'none', 'mean', 'sum')

if self.use_sigmoid:

weight,
alpha=self.alpha,
gamma=self.gamma,
iou_weighted=self.iou_weighted,
reduction=reduction,
avg_factor=avg_factor)
else:
raise NotImplementedError
return loss_cls
步骤二：在YOLOX-main/yolox/models/yolo_head.py中调用VarifocalLoss
（1）导入
from .varifocalloss import VarifocalLoss
（2）在init中实例化
self.varifocal = VarifocalLoss(reduction='none')
（3）替换原有的置信度预测损失loss_obj
# loss_iou:定位损失；loss_obj：置信度预测损失；loss_cls：预测损失
loss_iou = (
self.iou_loss(bbox_preds.view(-1, 4)[fg_masks], reg_targets)
).sum() / num_fg
#loss_obj = (
# self.bcewithlog_loss(obj_preds.view(-1, 1), obj_targets)
#).sum() / num_fg
loss_obj = (self.varifocal(obj_preds.view(-1, 1), obj_targets)
).sum() / num_fg
loss_cls = (
self.bcewithlog_loss(
cls_preds.view(-1, self.num_classes)[fg_masks], cls_targets)
).sum() / num_fg
效果：根据个人数据集而定。FocalLoss与VariFocalLoss在我的数据集上均能提升，模型越大效果越明显。（但是在yolox-tiny上FocalLoss效果AP50会低于原来）
