python - 具有交叉熵损失的 Softmax 激活导致两个类别的输出分别准确地收敛于 0 和 1

Question

我实现了一个简单的神经网络，只有一个 sigmoid 隐藏层，分别选择 sigmoid 或 softmax 输出层以及平方误差或交叉熵损失函数。经过对 softmax 激活函数、交叉熵损失及其导数(以及以下 this blog )的大量研究，我相信我的实现似乎是正确的。

当尝试学习简单的 XOR 函数时，使用 0 和 1 的单个二进制输出时，具有 sigmoid 输出的神经网络会很快学习到非常小的损失。但是，当将标签更改为 [1 的单热编码时, 0] = 0 且 [0, 1] = 1，softmax 实现不起作用。对于每个输入的两个输出，随着网络的输出精确地收敛到 [0, 1]，损失持续增加，但数据集的标签在 [0, 1] 和 [1, 0] 之间完美平衡。

我的代码如下，可以通过取消注释靠近代码底部的必要两行来选择在输出层使用 sigmoid 或 softmax。我不明白为什么 softmax 实现不起作用。

与网上的所有信息相反，只需将softmax交叉熵的导数从预测-标签更改为标签-预测就解决了问题。也许我在某个地方还有其他东西，因为我遇到的每个来源都将其作为预测 - 标签。
