tf.keras.losses.CosineSimilarity

Computes the cosine similarity between y_true & y_pred.

Inherits From: Loss

tf.keras.losses.CosineSimilarity(
    axis=-1,
    reduction='sum_over_batch_size',
    name='cosine_similarity'
)

Note that it is a number between -1 and 1. When it is a negative number between -1 and 0, 0 indicates orthogonality and values closer to -1 indicate greater similarity. This makes it usable as a loss function in a setting where you try to maximize the proximity between predictions and targets. If either y_true or y_pred is a zero vector, cosine similarity will be 0 regardless of the proximity between predictions and targets.

Formula:

loss = -sum(l2_norm(y_true) * l2_norm(y_pred))

Args
axis	The axis along which the cosine similarity is computed (the features axis). Defaults to -1.
reduction	Type of reduction to apply to the loss. In almost all cases this should be "sum_over_batch_size". Supported options are "sum", "sum_over_batch_size" or None.
name	Optional name for the loss instance.
