"""This document lists the quantization formats supported by Model Optimizer and example quantization configs.
.. _quantization-formats:
Quantization Formats
==========================================
The following table lists the quantization formats supported by Model Optimizer and the corresponding quantization
config. See :ref:`Quantization Configs <example-quantization-configs>` for the
specific quantization config definitions.
Please see :doc:`choosing the right quantization formats <../../guides/_choosing_quant_methods>` to
learn more about the formats and their use-cases.
.. note::
The recommended configs given below are for LLM models. For CNN models, only INT8 quantization
is supported. Please use quantization config ``INT8_DEFAULT_CFG`` for CNN models.
================================= =======================================================
Quantization Format Model Optimizer config
================================= =======================================================
INT8 ``INT8_SMOOTHQUANT_CFG``
FP8 ``FP8_DEFAULT_CFG``
INT4 Weights only AWQ (W4A16) ``INT4_AWQ_CFG``
INT4-FP8 AWQ (W4A8) ``W4A8_AWQ_BETA_CFG``
================================= =======================================================
.. _quantization-configs:
Quantization Configs
================================
Quantization config is a dictionary with two top-level keys:
- ``"quant_cfg"``: an ordered list of :class:`QuantizerCfgEntry` dicts that specify which
quantizers to configure and how.
- ``"algorithm"``: the calibration algorithm passed to
:meth:`calibrate <modelopt.torch.quantization.model_calib.calibrate>`.
Please see :class:`QuantizeConfig` for the full config schema.
``quant_cfg`` — Entry Format
-----------------------------
Each entry in the ``quant_cfg`` list is a :class:`QuantizerCfgEntry` with the following fields:
- ``quantizer_name`` *(required)*: a wildcard string matched against quantizer module names.
Quantizer modules are instances of
:class:`TensorQuantizer <modelopt.torch.quantization.nn.modules.tensor_quantizer.TensorQuantizer>`
and have names ending with ``weight_quantizer``, ``input_quantizer``, etc.
- ``parent_class`` *(optional)*: restricts matching to quantizers whose immediate parent module is
of this PyTorch class (e.g. ``"nn.Linear"``). If omitted, all matching quantizers are targeted
regardless of their parent class.
- ``cfg`` *(optional)*: a dict of quantizer attributes as defined by
:class:`QuantizerAttributeConfig`, or a list of such dicts. When a list is given, the matched
:class:`TensorQuantizer <modelopt.torch.quantization.nn.modules.tensor_quantizer.TensorQuantizer>`
is replaced with a
:class:`SequentialQuantizer <modelopt.torch.quantization.nn.modules.tensor_quantizer.SequentialQuantizer>`
that applies each format in sequence. This is used for example in W4A8 quantization where weights
are quantized first in INT4 and then in FP8.
- ``enable`` *(optional)*: toggles matched quantizers on (``True``) or off (``False``),
independently of ``cfg``. When ``cfg`` is present and ``enable`` is absent, the quantizer is
implicitly enabled. When ``enable`` is the only field (no ``cfg``), it only flips the on/off
state — all other attributes remain unchanged.
``quant_cfg`` — Ordering and Precedence
-----------------------------------------
Entries are applied **in list order**; later entries override earlier ones for any quantizer they
match. The recommended pattern is:
1. Start with a deny-all entry ``{"quantizer_name": "*", "enable": False}`` (provided as
:data:`_base_disable_all`) to disable every quantizer by default.
2. Follow with format-specific entries that selectively enable and configure the desired quantizers.
3. Append :data:`_default_disabled_quantizer_cfg` to enforce standard exclusions (e.g. BatchNorm
layers, LM head, MoE routers).
To get the string representation of a module class for use in ``parent_class``, do:
.. code-block::
from modelopt.torch.quantization import QuantModuleRegistry
# Get the class name for nn.Conv2d
class_name = QuantModuleRegistry.get_key(nn.Conv2d)
Here is an example of a quantization config:
.. code-block::
MY_QUANT_CFG = {
"quant_cfg": [
# Deny all quantizers by default
{"quantizer_name": "*", "enable": False},
# Enable and configure weight and input quantizers
{"quantizer_name": "*weight_quantizer", "cfg": {"num_bits": 8, "axis": 0}},
{"quantizer_name": "*input_quantizer", "cfg": {"num_bits": 8, "axis": None}},
# Disable input quantizers specifically for LeakyReLU layers
{"quantizer_name": "*input_quantizer", "parent_class": "nn.LeakyReLU", "enable": False},
]
}
.. _example-quantization-configs:
Example Quantization Configurations
==========================================
These example configs can be accessed as attributes of ``modelopt.torch.quantization`` and can be given as
input to :meth:`mtq.quantize() <modelopt.torch.quantization.model_quant.quantize>`. For example:
.. code-block::
import modelopt.torch.quantization as mtq
model = mtq.quantize(model, mtq.INT8_DEFAULT_CFG, forward_loop)
You can also create your own config by following these examples.
For instance, if you want to quantize a model with int4 AWQ algorithm, but need to skip quantizing
the layer named ``lm_head``, you can create a custom config and quantize your model as following:
.. code-block::
# Create custom config
CUSTOM_INT4_AWQ_CFG = copy.deepcopy(mtq.INT4_AWQ_CFG)
CUSTOM_INT4_AWQ_CFG["quant_cfg"].append({"quantizer_name": "*lm_head*", "enable": False})
# quantize model
model = mtq.quantize(model, CUSTOM_INT4_AWQ_CFG, forward_loop)

2. ``enable=True`` (explicit or implicit) with an empty ``cfg`` — same shapes — is
rejected. Pydantic would otherwise coerce ``{}`` into ``QuantizerAttributeConfig()``

You should set block_sizes if you want fixed number of elements to share every scale factor.
The keys are the axes for block quantization and the
values are block sizes for quantization along the respective axes. Keys must be in the
range ``[-tensor.dim(), tensor.dim())``. Values, which are the block sizes for quantization must be
positive integers or ``None``. A positive block size specifies the block size for quantization along that
axis. ``None`` means that the block size will be the maximum possible size in that dimension - this is
useful for specifying certain quantization formats such per-token dynamic quantization which has the `amax`
shared along the last dimension.
In addition, there can be special string keys ``"type"``, ``"scale_bits"`` and ``"scale_block_sizes"``.
Key ``"type"`` should map to ``"dynamic"`` or ``"static"`` where ``"dynamic"``
indicates dynamic block quantization and "static"
indicates static calibrated block quantization. By default, the type is ``"static"``.
Key ``"scale_bits"`` specify the quantization bits for the per-block quantization scale factor

Key ``"scale_block_sizes"`` specify the block size for double quantization.
By default per-block quantization scale is not quantized.
For example, ``block_sizes = {-1: 32}`` will quantize the last axis of the input tensor in
blocks of size 32 with static calibration, with a total of ``numel(tensor) / 32`` scale factors.
``block_sizes = {-1: 32, "type": "dynamic"}`` will perform dynamic block quantization.
