Abstract
This paper studies loss functions for finite sets. For a given finite set S, we give sum-of-square type loss functions of minimum degree. When S is the vertex set of a standard simplex, we show such loss functions have no spurious minimizers (i.e., every local minimizer is a global one). Up to transformations, we give similar loss functions without spurious minimizers for general finite sets. When S is approximately given by a sample set T, we show how to get loss functions by solving a quadratic optimization problem. Numerical experiments and applications are given to show the efficiency of these loss functions.
