We propose Evolutionary Dynamic Loss (EDL), a framework that learns a transferable classification loss in the probability space using unlimited synthetic prediction-label pairs, without accessing real samples during the main loss pretraining stage. EDL parameterizes the loss as a lightweight network and is trained with a semantics-free ranking-consistency objective that assigns larger penalties for more erroneous predictions. To robustly explore the space of loss functions, we optimize EDL via an evolutionary strategy and introduce chaotic mutation to improve exploration under noisy fitness evaluations. Experiments on CIFAR-10 with ResNet backbones show that EDL can serve as a drop-in replacement for cross-entropy and achieves competitive or improved accuracy, while ablation studies confirm that chaotic mutation yields faster convergence and better synthetic pretraining metrics than standard Gaussian mutation.
