`com.microsoft`  ·  ONNX Runtime contrib operator  ·  contrib since_version 1

## Description

Matrix product of two N-dimensional tensors `A` and `B`, following NumPy-style matrix-multiplication broadcasting. Supports optional transposition of either operand's last two dimensions, optional batch-dimension transposition, and a scalar `alpha` multiplier. Float32 and float16 are supported; double and bfloat16 are not.

See the [ONNX Runtime `FusedMatMul` contrib-operator spec](https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/blob/main/docs/ContribOperators.md#com.microsoft.FusedMatMul) for the reference semantics.

## Inputs

| Name | Logical dtype | Rank | Shape | Description | Presence |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `A` | `T` | — | — | N-dimensional matrix A. | required |
| `B` | `T` | — | — | N-dimensional matrix B. | required |

## Outputs

| Name | Logical dtype | Rank | Shape | Description | Presence |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `Y` | `T` | derived | derived | Matrix-multiplication result whose shape follows NumPy-style rules after applying the requested batch and matrix transpositions. | required |

## Attributes

Default values (overridable per request):

| Attribute | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `alpha` | `1` | Scalar multiplier applied to the product of the input tensors. |
| `transA` | `0` | When non-zero, transposes `A` on its last two dimensions before multiplication. |
| `transB` | `0` | When non-zero, transposes `B` on its last two dimensions before multiplication. |
| `transBatchA` | `0` | When non-zero, transposes `A` on its first dimension and batch dimensions (dim-1 to dim-rank-2) before multiplication. |
| `transBatchB` | `0` | When non-zero, transposes `B` on its first dimension and batch dimensions (dim-1 to dim-rank-2) before multiplication. |

## Type constraints

| Variable | Allowed dtypes |
| --- | --- |
| `T` | `float32`, `float16` |

## Implementation variants

One implementation is selected per call from the device capabilities, the request shapes and the dtypes; these notes say what each one covers.

- `subgroup_matrix_transbatch_b_f16` — Aligned rank-3 transBatchB product with sufficient reduction depth and output tiles to amortize subgroup-matrix staging.
- `subgroup_matrix_transbatch_b_f32` — Aligned rank-3 transBatchB product with sufficient reduction depth and output tiles to amortize subgroup-matrix staging.
- `rank2_band_vec4_splitk` — Splits the vec4 band's K axis across up to sixteen workgroups. Each range writes an f32 partial band with alpha applied, and a combine pass sums the partials.
- `rank2_band_vec4` — Few-row band for a rank-2 product without transposes. Each lane owns one vec4 column group and one accumulator per row, so every B word feeds all 2 to 16 rows; alpha is applied at the store.
- `rank2_band_vec4_f32_preferred` — Few-row band for a rank-2 product without transposes. Each lane owns one vec4 column group and one accumulator per row, so every B word feeds all 2 to 16 rows; alpha is applied at the store.
- `subgroup_matrix_splitk` — Partitions the K reduction of small-M rank-2 products across subgroup-matrix workgroups, then combines float32 partials that already include alpha.
- `plain_rank2_tiled_reg` — Register-blocked rank-2 `Y = alpha * A @ B` specialization for non-transposed inputs on tiers without subgroup-matrix support.
- `transbatch_b_tiled_reg` — Register-blocked logical rank3 product with an interleaved physical B batch axis.

## Device requirements

Some implementation variants require `subgroup-matrix` and `subgroups`. These are route-specific capabilities, not package-wide requirements; availability also depends on the request shape and dtype.

## Use with `@huggingface/kernels`

```sh
npm install --save-exact @huggingface/kernels@0.0.1-preview.2
```

Required output shapes and logical data types are inferred from the supplied inputs and attributes; result tensors are allocated automatically.

The `version: 1` option selects the published kernel contract; it is independent of any operator opset, contrib `since_version`, or model version.
It follows the `v1` branch as fixes land. To pin exact artifact bytes, pass a 40-character commit `revision` instead of `version`.

Replace each `*Data` placeholder with a typed array containing the corresponding input data.

```js
import { getKernel } from "@huggingface/kernels";

const kernel = await getKernel("webgpu-kernels/com.microsoft.FusedMatMul", { version: 1 });
const { Y } = await kernel({ A: { data: AData, shape: [3] }, B: { data: BData, shape: [3] } });
```
