SoftTripletLoss margin #13

Closed pmorerio closed 4 years ago

pmorerio commented 4 years ago

Hi, first of all thanks for sharing such great code. Can I ask you the meaning of setting margin=0.0 versus margin=None in the MMTTrainer? Inspecting the SoftTripletLoss class looks like margin=None implements equation 8 in the paper, while setting the margin to any float would boil it down to equation 6. Am I correct? Thank you very much.

Hi, your understanding is exactly right. When setting the margin to a float number like 0.0, (1-margin) becomes the label in equation 6, e.g. 1 in our paper.
