docs(timm_mobilenetv4): record why FP8 is not shipped - #2137
families/timm_mobilenetv4 builds the pure-convolution MobileNetV4 classifiers (conv_small_050, conv_small, conv_medium, conv_large) as one image classification engine (batch 1, fp16 in the manifests) and has no quantized build. No FP8 or NVFP4 checkpoint of these models exists on the Hub, so FP8 self-quantization of the pointwise convolutions (build-time per-channel FP8 weights, static per-tensor activation scales from ModelOpt max calibration) was built and measured for mobilenetv4_conv_large on TensorRT 11.4 and 11.1. FP8 does not pay for this family: the plan is 43% smaller (63.6 to 36.0 MiB) and top-1 stays at the fp16 level, but FP8 is only 1.01x (B200) and 1.04x (B300) the fp16 speed at batch 1, 0.92x to 0.96x at batch 32 and 128, and 0.99x on TensorRT 11.1. With builder optimization level 3 (#2123, open) the fp16 baseline is 1.36x to 1.40x faster and FP8 is slower than fp16 (0.93x to 0.94x). A plan-size gain with no speed gain is not shipped (same decision as yolov10, #2093). This change adds the study to the family README, like the timm_efficientnet (#2102) and yolov10 (#2093) studies, so that it does not have to be repeated. The FP8 code is not part of this change. NVFP4 was not tried: TensorRT does not support NVFP4 on convolutions.
Exit Criteria
The README records the recipe, the method, speed and plan size on B200 and B300 (TensorRT 11.4, 11.1), the optimization level 3 comparison, top-1 against PyTorch fp32, the kernel time that explains the missing speedup, the recipe variants, conv_medium and conv_small, NVFP4 and when to revisit.
No code, test, manifest or bundle change; builds are unchanged.
Non-goals: shipping FP8 or NVFP4 builds, an FP8 manifest or CI case.
Implementation
families/timm_mobilenetv4/README.md: new section "FP8 quantization study (not shipped)": summary and decision, recipe, method, results (speed and size, optimization level 3, quality, kernel time per group, variants, other widths), NVFP4, what was not tried, when to revisit. The existing text is unchanged.
Recipe that was measured (code kept out of the repository):
FP8 for the 54 1x1 convolutions inside the blocks of conv_large; the 3x3 stem, the 3x3 conv_exp of the edge residual block, the 45 depthwise convolutions, the head convolution and the classifier stay fp16.
Weights: per-output-channel scale amax / 448 of the batch-norm-folded kernel at build time. Activations: static per-tensor scales from ModelOpt FP8_DEFAULT_CFG (max) on 500 ImageNet validation images. fp16 Dequantize.
Why no gain: at batch 1 the engine is bound by launches and small kernels; the FP8 1x1 convolutions (48 to 2048 channels) take about the same kernel time as fp16, and 12 to 15 Quantize layers do not fuse into the producing layer. At batch 32 and 128 the extra Quantize layers cost more than the convolutions save. Level 3 removes about 60 fp16 layers and leaves FP8 behind.

Not Run / Remaining Gaps
No code was run for this change; the study cannot be rerun from this repository because the FP8 code was not merged.
Not measured: FP8 at batch 32 and 128 with optimization level 3, percentile or entropy calibration, quantization-aware training, conv_small_050, H100, the native runtime with an FP8 bundle.
No problem on main was found during the study.
Contributor Self-Review
I have completed a self-review of this change.
Notes For Future Readers
Suggested review order: "Summary and decision", the optimization level 3 table, the kernel time table, "When to revisit".
Revisit FP8 when a TensorRT release has FP8 1x1 convolution kernels clearly faster than fp16 for small channel counts and fuses the Quantize after residual adds, or when only the plan size matters.
Risk level
Low
Medium
High
Risk rationale: documentation only; one README section added, no code, build, bundle or test change.
Add a section to the timm_mobilenetv4 README with the FP8
self-quantization study of mobilenetv4_conv_large on TensorRT 11.4
(B200, B300) and 11.1: recipe (per-channel FP8 weights on the 54
pointwise convolutions, static per-tensor activation scales from
ModelOpt max calibration, stem, depthwise, head and classifier kept
fp16), measurement method, speed, plan size, ImageNet top-1 against
PyTorch fp32, kernel time, recipe variants and the other widths.
The FP8 plan is 43% smaller (63.6 to 36.0 MiB) and top-1 stays at the
fp16 level (81.40% / 81.60% vs 81.53% / 81.47%), but FP8 is only 1.01x
(B200) and 1.04x (B300) the fp16 speed at batch 1, 0.92x to 0.96x at
batch 32 and 128, and 0.99x on TensorRT 11.1. With builder optimization
level 3 (NVIDIA#2123) fp16 is 1.36x to 1.40x faster and FP8 is slower than
fp16 (0.93x to 0.94x). conv_medium and conv_small are slower than fp16
in FP8 at every batch. A smaller plan with no speed gain is not a reason
to ship FP8. NVFP4 was not tried (no NVFP4 convolution in TensorRT).
Documentation only; no code change.
Signed-off-by: Zhenshan Xie <zhenshanx@nvidia.com>
Adds an “FP8 quantization study (not shipped)” section to the MobileNetV4 family README. It records the quantization recipe, evaluation method, results, and reasons FP8 was not shipped.
The study reports a 43% smaller plan for mobilenetv4_conv_large, with near-FP16 top-1 accuracy. It reports little or no speed gain at batch 1 and slower performance at batches 32 and 128. At TensorRT optimization level 3, FP8 is slower than FP16 at batch 1. The README also documents results for other model widths and states that NVFP4 was not tested.
This change adds documentation only. No code, tests, manifests, bundles, or builds change.
Architecture impact
PASS for the reviewed architecture change. The only changed file is families/timm_mobilenetv4/README.md, which is family-owned. No shared surfaces, dependency directions, or consumer interfaces change.
HUMAN REVIEW REQUIRED for the reported study results. The README states that the FP8 code was not merged, so the study cannot be rerun from this repository. The reported measurements were not rerun for this change. Their accuracy and reproducibility are not established by the available evidence.
The README adds an FP8 quantization study for mobilenetv4_conv_large.e500_r256_in1k. It describes the recipe and evaluation method, reports performance and quality measurements, and records why the measured implementation was not shipped.

Distinguish accuracy change from prediction change.
The two-image difference is the net change in correct predictions, not the number of changed predictions. On B200, fp16 agrees with PyTorch on all 1,500 images, while FP8 agrees on 97.13%, so 43 predictions differ. State the net accuracy change separately from prediction agreement.

Background
families/timm_mobilenetv4builds the pure-convolution MobileNetV4 classifiers (conv_small_050,conv_small,conv_medium,conv_large) as one image classification engine (batch 1, fp16 in the manifests) and has no quantized build. No FP8 or NVFP4 checkpoint of these models exists on the Hub, so FP8 self-quantization of the pointwise convolutions (build-time per-channel FP8 weights, static per-tensor activation scales from ModelOpt max calibration) was built and measured formobilenetv4_conv_largeon TensorRT 11.4 and 11.1. FP8 does not pay for this family: the plan is 43% smaller (63.6 to 36.0 MiB) and top-1 stays at the fp16 level, but FP8 is only 1.01x (B200) and 1.04x (B300) the fp16 speed at batch 1, 0.92x to 0.96x at batch 32 and 128, and 0.99x on TensorRT 11.1. With builder optimization level 3 (#2123, open) the fp16 baseline is 1.36x to 1.40x faster and FP8 is slower than fp16 (0.93x to 0.94x). A plan-size gain with no speed gain is not shipped (same decision as yolov10, #2093). This change adds the study to the family README, like the timm_efficientnet (#2102) and yolov10 (#2093) studies, so that it does not have to be repeated. The FP8 code is not part of this change. NVFP4 was not tried: TensorRT does not support NVFP4 on convolutions.Exit Criteria

At batch 32 and 128 the extra Quantize layers cost more than the convolutions save. Level 3 removes about 60 fp16 layers and leaves FP8 behind.
