Dequantize

Dequantize an integer input tensor into an float output tensor. The quantization computation is as follows: \(output_{i_0,..,i_n} = (input_{i_0,..,i_n}-\text{zero_point}) \cdot \text{scale}\).

Attributes

axis The axis to perform the quantization on.

toType The DataType of the output tensor. Defaults to float32.

Inputs

input: tensor of type T1.

scale: tensor of type T3 that provides the quantization scale. The scale tensor must be a build-time constant. Its dimensions must be a scalar for per-tensor quantization, a 1-D tensor for per-channel quantization, or a 2-D tensor for block quantization (supported for DataType::kINT4 only).

zero_point: tensor of type T2 that provides the quantization zero-point. The zero_point tensor is optional and will be assumed to be zero if not set. The zero_point must only contain zero-valued coefficients if set, and must have the same shape as scale.

Outputs

output: tensor of type T3.

Data Types

T1: int8, fp8, int4

T2: float32

T3: float16, bfloat16, float32

Shape Information

input and output are tensors with a shape of \([a_0,...,a_n]\).

scale and zero_point must have the same shape, if zero_point is defined.

Volume Limits

input, scale, and zero_point can have up to \(2^{31}-1\) elements.
