quantize_dequantize

aimet_torch.v2.quantization.affine.quantize_dequantize(tensor, scale, offset, *args, **kwargs)[source]

Applies fake-quantization by quantizing and dequantizing the input.

Precisely,

\[out = (\overline{input} + offset) * scale\]

where

\[\overline{input} = clamp\left(\left\lceil\frac{input}{scale}\right\rfloor - offset, qmin, qmax\right)\]

If block size \(B = \begin{pmatrix} B_0 & B_1 & \cdots & B_{D-1} \end{pmatrix}\) is specified, this equation will be further generalized as

\[ \begin{align}\begin{aligned}\begin{split}out_{j_0 \cdots j_{D-1}} &= (\overline{input}_{j_0 \cdots j_{D-1}} + offset_{i_0 \cdots i_{D-1}}) * scale_{i_0 \cdots i_{D-1}}\\ \overline{input}_{j_0 \cdots j_{D-1}} &= clamp\left( \left\lceil\frac{input_{j_0 \cdots j_{D-1}}}{scale_{i_0 \cdots i_{D-1}}}\right\rfloor - offset_{i_0 \cdots i_{D-1}}, qmin, qmax\right)\\\end{split}\\\text{where } \quad \forall_{0 \leq d < D} \quad i_d = \left\lfloor \frac{j_d}{B_d} \right\rfloor\end{aligned}\end{align} \]

This function is overloaded with the signatures listed below:

aimet_torch.v2.quantization.affine.quantize_dequantize(tensor, scale, offset, bitwidth, signed=False, block_size=None)[source]

Equivalent to:

\[\begin{split}qmin= \begin{cases} -\left\lceil\frac{2^{bitwidth}-1}{2}\right\rceil,& \text{if } signed\\ 0, & \text{otherwise (default)} \end{cases} qmax= \begin{cases} \left\lfloor\frac{2^{bitwidth}-1}{2}\right\rfloor,& \text{if } signed\\ 2^{bitwidth}-1, & \text{otherwise (default)} \end{cases}\end{split}\]
Parameters:
  • tensor (Tensor) – Tensor to quantize

  • scale (Tensor) – Scale for quantization

  • offset (Tensor) – Offset for quantization

  • bitwidth (int) – Bitwidth of quantized tensor based on which \(qmin\) and \(qmax\) will be derived

  • signed (bool) – If false, \(\overline{input}\) will be mapped to positive integers only. Otherwise, \(\overline{input}\) will range over both positive and negative integers.

  • block_size (Tuple[int, ...], optional) – Block size

aimet_torch.v2.quantization.affine.quantize_dequantize(tensor, scale, offset, *, num_steps, signed=False, block_size=None)[source]

Equivalent to:

Parameters:
  • tensor (Tensor) – Tensor to quantize

  • scale (Tensor) – Scale for quantization

  • offset (Tensor) – Offset for quantization

  • num_steps (int) – The number of steps in the quantization range based on which \(qmin\) and \(qmax\) will be derived

  • signed (bool) – If false, \(\overline{input}\) will be mapped to positive integers only. Otherwise, \(\overline{input}\) will range over both positive and negative integers.

  • block_size (Tuple[int, ...], optional) – Block size

aimet_torch.v2.quantization.affine.quantize_dequantize(tensor, scale, offset, *, qmin, qmax, block_size=None)[source]
Parameters:
  • tensor (Tensor) – Tensor to quantize

  • scale (Tensor) – Scale for quantization

  • offset (Tensor) – Offset for quantization

  • qmin (int) – Minimum value of the quantization range

  • qmax (int) – Maximum value of the quantization range

  • block_size (Tuple[int, ...], optional) – Block size
