Implementation of the Class Distance Weighted Cross-Entropy Loss in PyTorch. This loss is designed for the multilabel classification problems, when one assumes ordinal nature between the classes.
The CDW Cross-Entropy Loss is presented in the Class Distance Weighted Cross-Entropy Loss for Ulcerative Colitis Severity Estimation (see citations) and further extended in the Using sequences of life-events to predict human lives.
This repository provides a simple implementation of original CDW Cross-Entropy and the one used in the life2vec case.
