Computes the mean of squares of errors between labels and predictions.
Inherits From: Loss
tf.keras.losses.MeanSquaredError(
reduction='sum_over_batch_size',
name='mean_squared_error',
dtype=None
)
Used in the notebooks
loss = mean(square(y_true - y_pred))
Args |
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", "mean",
"mean_with_sample_weight" or None. "sum" sums the loss,
"sum_over_batch_size" and "mean" sum the loss and divide by the
sample size, and "mean_with_sample_weight" sums the loss and
divides by the sum of the sample weights. "none" and None
perform no aggregation. Defaults to "sum_over_batch_size".
|
name
|
Optional name for the loss instance.
|
dtype
|
The dtype of the loss's computations. Defaults to None, which
means using keras.backend.floatx(). keras.backend.floatx() is a
"float32" unless set to different value
(via keras.backend.set_floatx()). If a keras.DTypePolicy is
provided, then the compute_dtype will be utilized.

Examples:
y_true = keras.ops.array([1.0, 0.0, 1.0])
y_pred = keras.ops.array([0.9, 0.1, 0.8])
loss = keras.losses.MeanSquaredError()
loss(y_true, y_pred)
0.02
