### `tf.contrib.losses.softmax_cross_entropy(*args, **kwargs)` {#softmax_cross_entropy}

Creates a cross-entropy loss using tf.nn.softmax_cross_entropy_with_logits. (deprecated arguments)

SOME ARGUMENTS ARE DEPRECATED. They will be removed after 2016-11-25.
Instructions for updating:
`weight` is being deprecated, use `weights`

  `weight` acts as a coefficient for the loss. If a scalar is provided,
  then the loss is simply scaled by the given value. If `weight` is a
  tensor of size [`batch_size`], then the loss weights apply to each
  corresponding sample.

  If `label_smoothing` is nonzero, smooth the labels towards 1/num_classes:
      new_onehot_labels = onehot_labels * (1 - label_smoothing)
                          + label_smoothing / num_classes

  Args:
    logits: [batch_size, num_classes] logits outputs of the network .
    onehot_labels: [batch_size, num_classes] target one_hot_encoded labels.
    weights: Coefficients for the loss. The tensor must be a scalar or a tensor
      of shape [batch_size].
    label_smoothing: If greater than 0 then smooth the labels.
    scope: the scope for the operations performed in computing the loss.
    weight: Deprecated alias for `weights`.

  Returns:
    A scalar `Output` representing the loss value.

  Raises:
    ValueError: If the shape of `logits` doesn't match that of `onehot_labels`
      or if the shape of `weight` is invalid or if `weight` is None.
