交叉熵损失函数是衡量输出与标签之间的损失，通过求导确定梯度下降的方向。
loss突然变为0，有两种可能性。
一是因为预测输出为0，二是因为标签为0。
如果是因为标签为0，那么一开始loss就可能为0.
检查参数初始化
检查前向传播的网络
检查loss的计算格式
检查梯度下降
是否出现梯度消失。
实际上是标签出了错误
补充：pytorch训练出现loss=na
遇到一个很坑的情况，在pytorch训练过程中出现loss=nan的情况
有以下几种可能：
1.学习率太高。
2.loss函数有问题
3.对于回归问题，可能出现了除0 的计算，加一个很小的余项可能可以解决
4.数据本身，是否存在Nan、inf，可以用np.isnan(),np.isinf()检查一下input和target
5.target本身应该是能够被loss函数计算的，比如sigmoid激活函数的target应该大于0，同样的需要检查数据集
以上为个人经验，希望能给大家一个参考，也希望大家多多支持hwidc。如有错误或未考虑完全的地方，望不吝赐教。
