Quantized ConvTranspose Fusion Patterns

Overview

oneDNN supports both floating-point and quantized ConvTranspose fusion patterns to optimize performance and reduce memory bandwidth requirements. This document describes the supported quantized fusion patterns for ConvTranspose. For floating-point ConvTranspose fusion patterns, refer to ConvTranspose Fusion Patterns for more details.

Pattern Structure

oneDNN defines quantized ConvTranspose fusion patterns as follows. The blue nodes are required when defining a quantized ConvTranspose fusion pattern while the brown nodes are optional.

quantized ConvTranspose pattern

  1. Q2F Conversion Subgraph : Converts src and weights tensors from quantized to floating-point. It can be one of the following subgraphs, while the second subgraph applies only to weights. See Dequantize and Quantize operations in Graph API.

  2. ConvTranspose Operation : Performs transposed convolution between the src and weights tensors. The bias tensor is optional. See the ConvTranspose operation in the Graph API for more details.

  3. Epilogue Subgraph : Optional and can include the following operations:

    Combination Rules:

    epilogue subgraph

    • BiasAdd : If present, must be the first op in the epilogue subgraph and can only appear once.

    • 0 to 4 Binary or Unary operations are supported in the epilogue subgraph.

  4. F2Q Conversion Subgraph : Converts the output tensor from floating-point to quantized data type. It is constructed by a Quantize operation.

Data Types

oneDNN supports the following combinations of data types for src, weights, bias and dst:

src

weights

bias

dst

u8,s8

s8,f32

f32,bf16,f16

u8,s8,bf16,f16,f32

The definition of the data types and support status on different CPU and GPU platforms follow the general description in the Data Types Guide.

Implementation Limitations

  1. GPU

    • Dequantize and Quantize in Q2F and F2Q Conversion Subgraphs only support zps values as all zeros.

    • Quantize in F2Q Conversion Subgraph only supports per_tensor quantization type, and its scales values should be all ones.
