I am trying to train a classifier to classify sign language, my dataset has 28 classes but I am getting the following error, I am new to deep learning, can someone please gives a clue on how to solve it

   2220         ret = torch._C._nn.nll_loss2d(input, target, weight, _Reduction.get_enum(reduction), ignore_index)

IndexError: Target 13 is out of bounds.

If seems you’ve initialized the model to output only 2 classes instead of 28:

model_ft.fc = nn.Linear(num_ftrs,2)

so you might want to change the out_features to 28 for the last linear layer. :wink:

Thanks it worked :sweat_smile:
