Bot review (claude-opus-5) — DM the bot to share feedback.
Nudge: the FP32-widen/restore approach looks correct and well-scoped, but the actual wiring point in _quantize_static is never exercised by a test, so I can't fully confirm the end-to-end contract.
Needs action:
- Add a test that drives
_quantize_staticwith a realHistogramCalibraterso the newisinstance(...)restore branch executes —test_quantize_static_basicpasses a plainMock, so that line is currently untested. - Confirm the restored FP16
lowest/higheststill yield an FP16 QDQ scale on a real FP16 model (this is the reason for restoring at all, and nothing asserts it). - Replace the vacuous
assert len(edges) == len(hist) + 1intest_collect_value_fp16_narrow_range(always true fornp.histogram) with a bin-count or bin-width check. - Widen the CHANGELOG entry in
CHANGELOG.rst: the fix also covers Distribution (FP8) and asymmetric-percentile histogram paths, not just "INT8 entropy".
No action needed:
- Rewriting
test_collect_value_fp16_narrow_rangeis justified — it now covers both collectors plus equal- and expanding-range merges, strictly more coverage than before. _collect_absolute_valuestill builds FP16 edges, but it's unreachable from the int8/fp8 entry points.

I kept the changelog scoped to ONNX INT8 entropy calibration. The public INT8 and FP8 entry points select Entropy or MinMax calibration; Distribution and Percentile are reachable only through the private Validation with CUDA hidden:

Addressed the high-range FP16 finding in
I also reproduced the symmetric-Percentile issue, but am deferring it from this PR. The public INT8 and FP8 entry points expose Entropy/MinMax calibration, while Percentile is reachable only through the private static-quantization helper. The issue is unchanged from the PR base, and the suggested whole-model edit would be incomplete because the per-node patch configuration does not currently install the absolute-value collector override. That path needs a separately scoped fix and regression rather than a partial extension here. Validation with CUDA hidden:

Nudge: the prior test gaps are closed, but the newly added compute_scale_zp monkeypatch is fresh surface I can't fully verify against both pinned ORT versions.
Needs action:
- Confirm
onnxruntime.quantization.quant_utils.compute_scale_zphas the same(rmin, rmax, qmin, qmax, symmetric, min_real_range)signature on both pinned ORT lines (~=1.22.0for py3.10,~=1.24.2otherwise) inmodelopt/onnx/quantization/ort_patching.py; forwarding positionally breaks loudly if an argument is ever inserted —*args, **kwargspassthrough would be safer. - Note in the PR body (or a code comment) that only
qdq_quantizer's binding is patched, so weight scales computed viaquant_utils.quantize_datakeep the original FP16 overflow behavior — confirm that's intentional scope. - Confirm the unprotected
patch_ort_modules(False)call intests/unit/onnx/quantization/test_ort_patching_histogram.py(process-global, never undone) can't affect later unit tests.
No action needed:
- ✔️ Resolved since the last review: real
HistogramCalibratercoverage of_quantize_static, the FP16 QDQ-scale assertion, and the vacuous edge-count assert. The CHANGELOG scoping was declined with a reasonable rationale, and the deleted GPU test moved to the unit suite with strictly more coverage.

What does this PR do?
Type of change: Bug fix
FP16 entropy calibration can fail for sufficiently narrow activation ranges because NumPy may construct the histogram bin edges at FP16 precision. NumPy 2.2 and later reject the resulting collapsed bin spacing, while earlier versions can silently return invalid, non-monotonic edges. The same precision issue can recur when ONNX Runtime merges later calibration batches.
Losslessly widen FP16 activation values to FP32 while calculating and merging histograms in both ONNX entropy calibration paths, then restore the source dtype at the calibration-to-quantization boundary. This keeps the histogram bins stable without changing FP16 Q/DQ scale or graph dtype semantics. FP32 inputs and public APIs are unchanged.
For full-range FP16 activations, ONNX Runtime can overflow while subtracting FP16 calibration endpoints before it widens the result. Retry only a non-finite FP16 scale calculation with FP32 endpoints, then cast the finite scale back to FP16. Existing finite FP16 calculations and all non-FP16 calculations continue to use ONNX Runtime's original result.
The fallback intentionally patches only the
qdq_quantizerbinding used for calibrated activation ranges. Initializer and weight quantization continue to use ONNX Runtime's existingquant_utilspath unchanged; full-range FP16 weight scaling is outside this calibration fix.The regression tests exercise both collectors across initial collection, an equal-range merge, and an expanding-range merge. They also verify the internal FP32 histogram and external FP16 calibration-range contract, including finite saturation when restoring sanitized values. A real entropy calibration test covers full-range FP16 values and verifies finite FP16 Q/DQ scales and a loadable ONNX Runtime graph. The AutoCast integration verifies the same FP16 scale-type contract through the public quantization path.
