Adds an attention-aware ONNX post-processing pass (scale Mul / K-transpose move before Q, Q→DQ insertion on softmax output) in :class:`FP8QuantExporter `, per-instance nested-attention-wrapper skipping in the HF plugin, and ``nn.LayerNorm`` registration in ``QuantModuleRegistry`` so BMM input quantizers and LayerNorm output quantizers defined in FP8_DEFAULT_CFG are honored end-to-end. See `examples/torch_onnx/torch_quant_to_onnx.py `_ for the general timm-model quantize→ONNX workflow. - Add offline DFlash speculative decoding training. Train the draft module from pre-computed base-model hidden states dumped by ``examples/speculative_decoding/collect_hidden_states/compute_hidden_states_hf.py``; base-model transformer layers are deleted after conversion to save memory. Controlled by the auto-derived ``dflash_offline`` flag on ``DFlashConfig`` (derived from ``data_args.offline_data_path``). The dump scripts now share ``collect_hidden_states/common.py`` for aux-layer selection (``--aux-layers eagle|dflash|``) and optional assistant-token ``loss_mask`` for answer-only-loss training. 0.44 (2026-05-xx) @@ -37,6 +36,7 @@ Changelog - [Early Testing] Polish Claude Code evaluation skill (``.claude/skills/evaluation/``) for agent-assisted LLM accuracy benchmarking via NeMo Evaluator Launcher. Adds two companion skills vendored verbatim from `NVIDIA-NeMo/Evaluator `_: ``launching-evals`` (run/check/debug/analyze NEL evaluations) and ``accessing-mlflow`` (query MLflow runs, compare metrics, fetch artifacts). Re-sync at a pinned upstream SHA via ``.claude/scripts/sync-upstream-skills.sh``. Also adds a shared ``skills/common/credentials.md`` covering HF / NGC / Docker token setup referenced by multiple skills. This feature is in early testing — use with caution. - Add performant layerwise calibration for large models that don't fit on GPU (e.g. DeepSeek-R1, Kimi-K2). See `modelopt_recipes/general/ptq/nvfp4_experts_only-fp8_kv.yaml `_ for usage. Layerwise calibration also supports PTQ with intermediate progress saving — useful when long PTQ runs get hit with Slurm timeouts. See `modelopt_recipes/general/ptq/nvfp4_default-none_kv_gptq.yaml `_ for usage. - Add implicit GEMM CUDA kernel for Conv3D with fused NVFP4 fake quantization (``modelopt.torch.quantization.src.conv``). When NVFP4 quantization is applied to an ``nn.Conv3d`` layer via ModelOpt PTQ, the implicit GEMM path is used automatically instead of cuDNN. Uses BF16 WMMA tensor cores (SM80+) with FP32 accumulation and in-kernel FP4 (E2M1) activation quantization. Grouped convolution (``groups > 1``) falls back to the default cuDNN path. Inference only — training mode falls back to cuDNN with a warning. +- Add FP8 MHA quantization support for vision transformers. Adds an attention-aware ONNX post-processing pass (scale Mul / K-transpose move before Q, Q→DQ insertion on softmax output) in :class:`FP8QuantExporter `, per-instance nested-attention-wrapper skipping in the HF plugin, and ``nn.LayerNorm`` registration in ``QuantModuleRegistry`` so BMM input quantizers and LayerNorm output quantizers defined in FP8_DEFAULT_CFG are honored end-to-end.
