why does this error :Unknown loss function:DSSIMObjective happen after adding custom loss function?

Question

I want to use DSSIM loss function and I put the code of this loss function in my code but it produces this error

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "", line 218, in w_extraction.compile(optimizer=opt, loss={'decoder_output':'DSSIMObjective','wprim':'binary_crossentropy'}, loss_weights={'decoder_output': 1.0, 'wprim': 1.0},metrics=['mae'])

File "D:\software\Anaconda3\envs\py36\lib\site-packages\keras\engine\training.py", line 129, in compile loss_functions.append(losses.get(loss.get(name)))

File "D:\software\Anaconda3\envs\py36\lib\site-packages\keras\utils\generic_utils.py", line 165, in deserialize_keras_object ':' + function_name)

ValueError: Unknown loss function:DSSIMObjective

and I do not know where should I put the definition of this loss function? I put this code on top of my network structure.

You should call this loss by providing an object instance, not a string name:

w_extraction.compile(optimizer=opt, loss={'decoder_output': DSSIMObjective(),'wprim':'binary_crossentropy'}, loss_weights={'decoder_output': 1.0, 'wprim': 1.0},metrics=['mae'])

why does this error :Unknown loss function:DSSIMObjective happen after adding custom loss function?
