tf.keras.metrics.Sum

Computes the (weighted) sum of the given values.

Inherits From: Metric, Layer, Module

For example, if values is [1, 3, 5, 7] then the sum is 16. If the weights were specified as [1, 1, 0, 0] then the sum would be 4.

This metric creates one variable, total, that is used to compute the sum of values. This is ultimately returned as sum.

If sample_weight is None, weights default to 1. Use sample_weight of 0 to mask values.

name (Optional) string name of the metric instance.
dtype (Optional) data type of the metric result.

Standalone usage:

m = tf.keras.metrics.Sum()
m.update_state([1, 3, 5, 7])
m.result().numpy()
16.0

Usage with compile() API:

model.add_metric(tf.keras.metrics.Sum(name='sum_1')(outputs))
model.compile(optimizer='sgd', loss='mse')

Methods

merge_state

View source

Merges the state from one or more metrics.

This method can be used by distributed systems to merge the state computed by different metric instances. Typically the state will be stored in the form of the metric's weights. For example, a tf.keras.metrics.Mean metric contains a list of two weight values: a total and a count. If there were two instances of a tf.keras.metrics.Accuracy that each independently aggregated partial state for an overall accuracy calculation, these two metric's states could be combined as follows:

m1 = tf.keras.metrics.Accuracy()
_ = m1.update_state([[1], [2]], [[0], [2]])
m2 = tf.keras.metrics.Accuracy()
_ = m2.update_state([[3], [4]], [[3], [4]])
m2.merge_state([m1])
m2.result().numpy()
0.75

Args
metrics an iterable of metrics. The metrics must have compatible state.

Raises
ValueError If the provided iterable does not contain metrics matching the metric's required specifications.

reset_state

View source

Resets all of the metric state variables.

This function is called between epochs/steps, when a metric is evaluated during training.

result

View source

Computes and returns the metric value tensor.

Result computation is an idempotent operation that simply calculates the metric value using the state variables.

update_state

View source

Accumulates statistics for computing the metric.

Args
values Per-example value.
sample_weight Optional weighting of each example. Defaults to 1.

Returns
Update op.
