[docs]def log_softmax(x, use_cudnn=True): """Channel-wise log-softmax function. This function computes its logarithm of softmax along the second axis. Let :math:`c = (c_1, c_2, \\dots, c_D)` be the slice of ``x`` along with the second axis. For each slice :math:`c`, it computes the logarithm of the function :math:`f(c)` defined as .. math:: f(c) = {\\exp(c) \\over \\sum_{d} \\exp(c_d)}. This method is theoretically equivalent to ``log(softmax(x))`` but is more stable. .. note:: ``log(softmax(x))`` may cause underflow when ``x`` is too small, because ``softmax(x)`` may returns ``0``. ``log_softmax`` method is more stable. Args: x (:class:`~chainer.Variable` or :class:`numpy.ndarray` or \ :class:`cupy.ndarray`): Input variable. A :math:`n`-dimensional (:math:`n \\geq 2`) float array. use_cudnn (bool): If ``True`` and cuDNN is enabled, then this function uses cuDNN as the core implementation. Returns: ~chainer.Variable: Output variable. A :math:`n`-dimensional (:math:`n \\geq 2`) float array, which is the same shape with x. .. seealso:: :func:`~chainer.functions.softmax` .. admonition:: Example >>> x = np.array([[0, 1, 2], [0, 2, 4]], 'f') >>> x array([[ 0., 1., 2.], [ 0., 2., 4.]], dtype=float32) >>> F.log_softmax(x).data array([[-2.40760589, -1.40760589, -0.40760589], [-4.14293146, -2.14293146, -0.14293146]], dtype=float32) >>> np.allclose(F.log_softmax(x).data, F.log(F.softmax(x)).data) True """ return LogSoftmax(use_cudnn)(x)
