Hi,
Now I need to implement a joint loss L = L1 + L2 according to predicted pixel maps for my computer vision research, and in L1 I used the standard loss pytorch provides such as MSE. However, in loss L2, it involves several sparse matrix multiplications and I think there is no autograd support for sparse matrix operations.
Hence, if I want to implement a new class for my L2 loss and implement both forward and backward by myself, which class should I inherit? torch.autograd.Function or nn.Module? So how do I implement the gradient of my own loss function?
In addition, how do I call the functions so that the gradient of the loss w.r.t to predicted output from both L1 and L2 can be obtained, if L1’s autograd had been implemented by pytorch and L2’s gradient was implemented by myself.
Thanks!
