Describe your change:

  • Connectionist Temporal Classification (CTC) loss is used in speech recognition, handwriting recognition and other sequence problems. It's used to get around not knowing the alignment between the input and the output.
  • The implementation has been verified to align with PyTorch's CTCLoss.
  • [x] Add an algorithm?
  • [ ] Fix a bug or typo in an existing algorithm?
  • [ ] Add or change doctests? -- Note: Please avoid changing both code and tests in a single pull request.
  • [ ] Documentation change?

Checklist:

Hi there, I just wanted to thank the maintainers for their hard work on the project, and I wanted to let them know that I submitted a few pull requests in the last few days. I would really appreciate it if one of them could take a look at them and let me know if there are any issues or if there's anything that needs to be fixed before they can be merged.

Thanks again for all your hard work! @cclauss
