class SortinoLoss(BaseLoss):
    r""" Negative Sortino ratio as a differentiable loss.

    Minimizing this loss penalizes downside returns only, unlike
    :class:`SharpeLoss` which penalizes both tails symmetrically.

    Notes
    -----
    The loss is defined as:

    .. math::

        \mathcal{L} = -\frac{\mu(r - rf_p)}
            {\sqrt{\mu(\text{ReLU}(-(r - rf_p))^2) + \varepsilon}}

    where :math:`r` is ``y_pred`` and :math:`rf_p = rf / period`.
    The denominator is a differentiable proxy for the downside deviation;
    its magnitude differs from the numpy
    :func:`~fynance.metrics.sortino` evaluation metric.

    **This is a training proxy** — the value is not comparable to the
    numpy :func:`~fynance.metrics.sortino` evaluation metric.

    Parameters
    ----------
    rf : float, optional
        Annualized risk-free rate. Default is 0.
    period : int, optional
        Number of periods per year. Default is 252.
    eps : float, optional
        Numerical stabilizer added inside the square root. Default is 1e-8.

    Examples
    --------
    >>> import torch
    >>> from fynance.models.loss import SortinoLoss
    >>> returns = torch.tensor([-0.01, 0.02, 0.01, -0.005, 0.03])
    >>> loss_fn = SortinoLoss()
    >>> loss = loss_fn(returns)
    >>> loss.shape
    torch.Size([])

        Parameters
        ----------
        y_pred : torch.Tensor

        y_true : torch.Tensor, optional
