Query: Stochastic smoothing of the top-K calibrated hinge loss for deep
  imbalanced classification   In modern classification tasks, the number of labels is getting larger and
larger, as is the size of the datasets encountered in practice. As the number
of classes increases, class ambiguity and class imbalance become more and more
problematic to achieve high top-1 accuracy. Meanwhile, Top-K metrics (metrics
allowing K guesses) have become popular, especially for performance reporting.
Yet, proposing top-K losses tailored for deep learning remains a challenge,
both theoretically and practically. In this paper we introduce a stochastic
top-K hinge loss inspired by recent developments on top-K calibrated losses.
Our proposal is based on the smoothing of the top-K operator building on the
flexible "perturbed optimizer" framework. We show that our loss function
performs very well in the case of balanced datasets, while benefiting from a
significantly lower computational time than the state-of-the-art top-K loss
function. In addition, we propose a simple variant of our loss for the
imbalanced case. Experiments on a heavy-tailed dataset show that our loss
function significantly outperforms other baseline loss functions.
