How to implement an adaptive loss in Keras?

I am trying to use Keras to implement the work done in A General and Adaptive Robust Loss Function. The author provides tensorflow code that works the hard details. I am just trying to use his prebuilt function in Keras.

His custom loss function is learning a parameter 'alpha' that controls the shape of the loss function. I would like to track 'alpha' in addition to the loss during training.

I am somewhat familiar with Keras custom loss functions and using wrappers, but I am not entirely sure how to use callbacks to track 'alpha'. Below is how I would choose to naively construct the loss function in Keras. However I am not sure how I would then access the 'alpha' to track.

From the provided tensorflow code, the function lossfun(x) returns a tuple.

def lossfun(x,
            alpha_lo=0.001,
            alpha_hi=1.999,
            alpha_init=None,
            scale_lo=1e-5,
            scale_init=1.,
            **kwargs):
    """
    Returns:
        A tuple of the form (`loss`, `alpha`, `scale`).
    """

def customAdaptiveLoss(): 
    def wrappedloss(y_true,y_pred):
        loss, alpha, scale = lossfun((y_true-y_pred))  #Author's function
        return loss
    return wrappedloss


Model.compile(optimizer = optimizers.Adam(0.001),
                        loss = customAdaptiveLoss,)

Again, what I am hoping to do is track the variable 'alpha' during training.

The following example displays alpha as a metric. Tested in colab.

    self.v_alpha = K.variable(z)

  def loss(self, y_true, y_pred, **kwargs):
    x = y_true - y_pred
    x = K.reshape(x, shape=(-1, 1))
    with tf.variable_scope("lossfun", reuse=True):
      loss, alpha, scale = lossfun(x)
    op = K.update(self.v_alpha, alpha)
    # The alpha update must be part of the graph but it should
    # not influence the result.
    return loss + 0 * op

  def alpha(self, y_true, y_pred):
    return self.v_alpha

def make_model():
  inp = Input(shape=(3,))
  out = Dense(1, use_bias=False)(inp)
  model = Model(inp, out)
  loss = RobustAdaptativeLoss()
  model.compile('adam', loss.loss, metrics=[loss.alpha])
  return model

model = make_model()
model.summary()

init_op = tf.global_variables_initializer()
K.get_session().run(init_op)

Y = np.apply_along_axis(target_fn, 1, X)

history = model.fit(X, Y, epochs=2, verbose=True)
print('final loss:', history.history['loss'][-1])
