.. testsetup:: * import torch from torch.nn import Module from pytorch_lightning.core.lightning import LightningModule from pytorch_lightning.metrics import Metric .. _metrics: Metrics ======= ``pytorch_lightning.metrics`` is a Metrics API created for easy metric development and usage in PyTorch and PyTorch Lightning. It is rigorously tested for all edge cases and includes a growing list of common metric implementations. The metrics API provides ``update()``, ``compute()``, ``reset()`` functions to the user. The metric base class inherits ``nn.Module`` which allows us to call ``metric(...)`` directly. The ``forward()`` method of the base ``Metric`` class serves the dual purpose of calling ``update()`` on its input and simultanously returning the value of the metric over the provided input. These metrics work with DDP in PyTorch and PyTorch Lightning by default. When ``.compute()`` is called in distributed mode, the internal state of each metric is synced and reduced across each process, so that the logic present in ``.compute()`` is applied to state information from all processes. The example below shows how to use a metric in your ``LightningModule``: .. note:: For v0.10.0 the user is expected to call ``.compute()`` on the metric at the end each epoch. This has been shown in the example below. For v1.0 release, we will integrate metrics with logging and ``.compute()`` will be called automatically by PyTorch Lightning. .. code-block:: python def __init__(self): ... self.accuracy = pl.metrics.Accuracy() def training_step(self, batch, batch_idx): logits = self(x) ... # log step metric self.log('train_acc_step', self.accuracy(logits, y)) ... def training_epoch_end(self, outs): # log epoch metric self.log('train_acc_epoch', self.accuracy.compute()) This metrics API is independent of PyTorch Lightning. Metrics can directly be used in PyTorch as shown in the example: .. code-block:: python from pytorch_lightning import metrics train_accuracy = metrics.Accuracy() valid_accuracy = metrics.Accuracy(compute_on_step=False) for epoch in range(epochs): for x, y in train_data: y_hat = model(x) # training step accuracy batch_acc = train_accuracy(y_hat, y) for x, y in valid_data: y_hat = model(x) valid_accuracy(y_hat, y) # total accuracy over all training batches total_train_accuracy = train_accuracy.compute() # total accuracy over all validation batches total_valid_accuracy = train_accuracy.compute() Implementing a Metric --------------------- To implement your custom metric, subclass the base ``Metric`` class and implement the following methods: - ``__init__()``: Each state variable should be called using ``self.add_state(...)``. - ``update()``: Any code needed to update the state given any inputs to the metric. - ``compute()``: Computes a final value from the state of the metric. All you need to do is call ``add_state`` correctly to implement a custom metric with DDP. ``reset()`` is called on metric state variables added using ``add_state()``. To see how metric states are synchronized across distributed processes, refer to ``add_state()`` docs from the base ``Metric`` class. Example implementation: .. code-block:: python from pytorch_lightning.metrics import Metric class MyAccuracy(Metric): def __init__(self, ddp_sync_on_step=False): super().__init__(ddp_sync_on_step=ddp_sync_on_step) self.add_state("correct", default=torch.tensor(0), dist_reduce_fx="sum") self.add_state("total", default=torch.tensor(0), dist_reduce_fx="sum") def update(self, preds: torch.Tensor, target: torch.Tensor): preds, target = self._input_format(preds, target) assert preds.shape == target.shape self.correct += torch.sum(preds == target) self.total += target.numel() def compute(self): return self.correct.float() / self.total Metric ^^^^^^ .. autoclass:: pytorch_lightning.metrics.Metric :noindex: Classification Metrics ---------------------- Accuracy ^^^^^^^^ .. autoclass:: pytorch_lightning.metrics.classification.Accuracy :noindex: Regression Metrics ------------------ MeanSquaredError ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ .. autoclass:: pytorch_lightning.metrics.regression.MeanSquaredError :noindex: MeanAbsoluteError ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ .. autoclass:: pytorch_lightning.metrics.regression.MeanAbsoluteError :noindex: MeanSquaredLogError ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ .. autoclass:: pytorch_lightning.metrics.regression.MeanSquaredLogError :noindex: Functional Metrics ================== The functional metrics follow the simple paradigm input in, output out. This means, they don't provide any advanced mechanisms for syncing across DDP nodes or aggregation over batches. They simply compute the metric value based on the given inputs. Also the integration within other parts of PyTorch Lightning will never be as tight as with the class-based interface. If you look for just computing the values, the functional metrics are the way to go. However, if you are looking for the best integration and user experience, please consider also to use the class interface.
