Summary

  • NVIDIA Model Optimizer renamed examples/llm_ptqexamples/hf_ptq (llm_ptq is 404).
  • Update docs/source/features/quantization.md and docs/source/torch/features/quantization.md to hf_ptq.
  • Drop obsolete --export_fmt hf from the torch quantization offline example (export is HF by default).

Test plan

  • Confirmed NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer examples/llm_ptq returns 404 and examples/hf_ptq exists with scripts/huggingface_example.sh.
  • Diff limited to the two docs path updates above.

Dev Engineer Review

Updated Model Optimizer documentation paths from examples/llm_ptq to examples/hf_ptq. Removed the obsolete --export_fmt hf option because HF export is now the default. No source-code, API, or configuration changes were made.

QA Engineer Review

No test changes.

Per-File QA Perspective

  • docs/source/features/quantization.md: Verify that Model Optimizer instructions use examples/hf_ptq and that the support-matrix link remains correct.
  • docs/source/torch/features/quantization.md: Verify that the offline quantization example works without --export_fmt hf and uses the default HF export behavior.

Walkthrough

The quantization documentation now points to ModelOpt’s hf_ptq example directory. One command no longer passes --export_fmt hf. The ModelOpt support matrix link remains available.

Changes

Quantization documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Update ModelOpt quantization commands
docs/source/features/quantization.md, docs/source/torch/features/quantization.md
The instructions use examples/hf_ptq instead of examples/llm_ptq. The Torch command removes --export_fmt hf. The support matrix link remains listed.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~2 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 201a6

This updates ModelOpt quantization instructions to the hf_ptq path and removes an obsolete option. The modified commands match the intended documentation change, with no current merge-blocking risk identified.

site:github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer hf_ptq examples huggingface_example.sh export_fmt

💡 Result:

The term hf_ptq refers to the Post-Training Quantization (PTQ) example directory within the NVIDIA Model Optimizer repository (formerly often referred to as llm_ptq) [1]. This directory contains tools and scripts for quantizing Hugging Face models for deployment, particularly with TensorRT-LLM [2][3]. The huggingface_example.sh script is a primary entry point in this directory used to automate the quantization and export process [2][3]. It delegates the core quantization logic to the hf_ptq.py script [3]. Regarding the export_fmt parameter: In the context of the NVIDIA Model Optimizer, export_fmt is an argument used in the quantization process to define the output format of the quantized model [4][5]. While the script often handles export paths automatically, users may specify formats to ensure compatibility with downstream deployment engines, such as TensorRT-LLM or specific Hugging Face-compatible structures [4][5]. Key features of these tools include: - Recipe-driven quantization: Users are encouraged to use --recipe to load predefined quantization configurations, which can be more robust than manually specifying individual parameters [2][6]. - Quantization Formats: Supported formats include fp8, int8, int4_awq, and newer formats like nvfp4, which are designed for specific hardware architectures (e.g., Blackwell GPUs) [2][3]. - Workflow: The general workflow involves providing a model path (local or Hugging Face ID), choosing a quantization format or recipe, and specifying an export path [2][3]. If an enc-dec model or specific sparse quantization is detected, the script may advise the user to use specific deployment tools like trtllm-build [3]. For more information, consult the official repository documentation at https://github.com/NVIDIA/Model-Optimizer/tree/main/examples/hf_ptq [2].

Update remaining Model Optimizer commands to the current contract.

The current examples/hf_ptq parser accepts --model, --quant, and related options, but not --export_fmt. Update the Exaone, Qwen, disaggregated, and other remaining examples/llm_ptq references to use examples/hf_ptq and remove the obsolete option.

Two things before merge:

  1. Both files lost their trailing newline (\ No newline at end of file on both hunks). The repo's .pre-commit-config.yaml enables end-of-file-fixer with no exclusions, so this will be flagged. In docs/source/features/quantization.md the last hunk is only the newline strip — the link text is unchanged — so it should drop out of the diff entirely.

  2. The rename sweep is incomplete. Still on llm_ptq: examples/quantization/README.md:10, examples/models/core/qwen/README.md (lines 85–141), examples/models/core/exaone/README.md:214,599,605, examples/disaggregated/README.md:476. Worth fixing in the same PR since they're 404s too. The qwen README also still passes --export_fmt hf.

This line is byte-identical to before — the only change is removing the trailing newline. end-of-file-fixer is enabled in .pre-commit-config.yaml with no excludes, so pre-commit will re-add it. Restore the newline here and in docs/source/torch/features/quantization.md so this hunk disappears from the diff.
