cooked: <p>my input tensor size [[10,3,256,256]) but my output tensor size ([10,1000]) is like this. I chose RGB images and my batch size 10. So my lost function doesn’t work. how can i fix this. i use ResNet-152</p>

username: ptrblck
cooked: <p>The output shape of <code>[10, 1000]</code> looks valid for a mutli-class classification use case with 1000 classes.<br>
I guess the target shape might be wrong.<br>
<code>nn.CrossEntropyLoss</code> expects the target to have the shape <code>[batch_size=10]</code> containing the class indices in the range <code>[0, nb_classes-1 = 999]</code>.<br>
If your target is one-hot encoded, use <code>target = torch.argmax(target, 1)</code> to create the expected target with the class indices.</p>

username: mustafa_emre_dos
cooked: <p>I solved the size problem. but I have 6 classes in total. hence, he expects target efficiency to be at [10,6,256,256] dimensions. The output data is [10,2048,256,256] due to the resnet. How can I fix the output data?  I want it to be [10,6,256,256].</p>

username: ptrblck
cooked: <p>Are you working on a multi-class segmentation use case?<br>
If so, then the target should have the shape <code>[10, 256, 256]</code> and contain values in the range <code>[0, 5]</code>.<br>
How did you end up with an output of <code>[10,2048,256,256]</code>?<br>
It seems that the spacial size wasn’t reduced at all, which should be the case for a resnet.</p>

username: mustafa_emre_dos
cooked: <p>Yes, I am working on semantic segmentation on the RGB image.</p>
<p>Since Batch_size = 10 and class_num = 6, my target size is [10,6,256,256].</p>
<p>Yes, I use Resnet architecture, so the output size is [10,2048,256,256].</p>

</aside>
<p>ResNet would return an output of <code>[batch_size, 1000]</code>, so you would have to manipulate it in some way to get this output. What were these modifications?</p>

username: mustafa_emre_dos
cooked: <p>I changed self.avgpool = nn.AdaptiveAvgPool2d ((1, 1)) and self.fc = nn.Linear (512 * block.expansion, num_classes in the last layer and deleted the line torch.flatten (x, 1). I used nn.Softmax2d () and self.avgpool = nn.AdaptiveAvgPool2d ((256, 256)).</p>

username: mustafa_emre_dos
cooked: <p>sorry. class_num = 7</p>

username: ptrblck
cooked: <p>In that case you would have to reduce the output channels from <code>2048</code> to the number of classes, e.g. by using a conv layer with <code>out_channels=nb_classes</code>. The kernel size might be <code>1x1</code>, but it depends on your use case, if that’s the best approach.</p>
<p>The target would still be wrong:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>the target should have the shape <code>[10, 256, 256]</code> and contain values in the range <code>[0, nb_classes-1]</code></p>
