Tiny, no-nonsense, self contained, TensorFlow and ONNX inference
Documentation

tract-linalg

linalg stands for "linear algebra". This is a misnamer. This crates contains low-level, architecture dependant optimisations used by tract-core.

Functions

  • MatMatMul: Extended matrix*matrix product:
    • inspired by Gotoblass and BLIS micro kernel approach
    • extended for convolution friendly addressing (fused img2col)
    • fused output pipeline (min, max, and a few more simple, fast ops)
    • f32*f32 -> f32 (à la sgemm)
    • i8*i8 -> i32 accumulator -> i32 storage
    • i8*i8 -> i32 accumulator -> i8 (with channel zeropoint and scale, and re-quantization pipeline)
  • f32 sigmoid and f32 tanh: at f32 precision, by a rationale function (no exponentiation)
  • byte-to-byte lookup table
