Classification (CTC) loss. Besides, another `warp-ctc
<https://github.com/gangliao/warp-ctc>`_ repository, which is forked from
the official one, is maintained to enable more compiling options. During the
building process, PaddlePaddle will clone the source codes, build and
install it to :code:`third_party/install/warpctc` directory.
To use warp_ctc layer, you need to specify the path of :code:`libwarpctc.so`,
using following methods:
1. Set it in :code:`paddle.init` (python api) or :code:`paddle_init` (c api),
such as :code:`paddle.init(use_gpu=True,
warpctc_dir=your_paddle_source_dir/third_party/install/warpctc/lib)`.
2. Set environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Linux or DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
on Mac OS. For instance, :code:`export
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=your_paddle_source_dir/third_party/install/warpctc/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH`.
More details of CTC can be found by referring to `Connectionist Temporal
Classification: Labelling Unsegmented Sequence Data with Recurrent
Neural Networks <http://machinelearning.wustl.edu/mlpapers/paper_files/

Note:
- Let num_classes represent the category number. Considering the 'blank'
label needed by CTC, you need to use (num_classes + 1) as the input
size. Thus, the size of both warp_ctc_layer and 'input' layer should
be set to num_classes + 1.

- You can set 'blank' to any value ranged in [0, num_classes], which
should be consistent as that used in your labels.
- As a native 'softmax' activation is interated to the warp-ctc library,
