MolmoAct2-LIBERO — Operator-Fused vision + action_step (QNN / HTP context binaries)

Operator-fused variants of the vision and action_step components of allenai/MolmoAct2-LIBERO, converted to Qualcomm QNN (HTP) context binaries for Dragonwing IQ-9075 (QCS9075, Hexagon v73, soc_id 77).

This repo is a companion to xpuenabler/molmoact2-libero_grid_sampler_qnn: it ships only the fused artifacts (fused ONNX + newly-built HTP context binaries) for the two modules where a projection-level fusion applies. The fused context binaries keep the same graph names (vision, action_step) and the same I/O contract as the unfused ones, so they are drop-in replacements in the resident runtime — the remaining components (llm_split0..3, action_context) are unchanged and taken from the base repo.

Model variant / sequence length. These fused graphs are the original allenai/MolmoAct2-LIBERO path: prompt seq = 488, vision emits 392 image tokens (2 crops × 196). This differs from the grid-sampler (seq=128 / 32-token) golden shipped in the base repo — see Verification for why parity is checked by ONNX-equivalence here.

ctx/ is a complete 7-session resident set: the two fused binaries (vision, action_step) built here, plus the unchanged llm_split0..3 and action_context carried over from the base repo. All graph names are unchanged, so this drops straight into the base repo's runtime/.

What was fused

Parallel projections sharing the same input activation are weight-concatenated into a single MatMul followed by a Split that restores the original per-branch output tensor names — so bias Add, reshape, and activation subgraphs are untouched and Split(concat(W)) ≡ [W_i] holds bit-exactly. (Details + before/after node counts in onnx/operator_fusion_applied.md.)

Node-count deltas: vision MatMul 210→158 (Split 0→27); action_step MatMul 398→362 (Split 0→36). The fused ONNX are numerically identical to the originals (max_abs_diff = 0.000e+00, onnxruntime, ORT_DISABLE_ALL).

---

Verification

The base repo's golden tensors are the grid-sampler (seq=128) variant, whereas these fused graphs are the original seq=488 path — so those golden tensors cannot serve as a PyTorch parity reference here. Instead, each fused DLC is verified against its fused ONNX on identical inputs (real golden pixel_values for vision; deterministic synthesized inputs at the ONNX's declared shapes for action_step), run on the QNN CPU backend vs onnxruntime:

Chain of trust: fused DLC ≡ fused ONNX (above) and fused ONNX ≡ original ONNX ≡ PyTorch (upstream max_abs_diff = 0). fp16-on-HTP numerics + latency are validated on device by the base repo's runtime/.

Build provenance

• Base model: allenai/MolmoAct2-LIBERO (original, non-grid-sampler; prompt seq = 488).
• Fusion: onnx 1.18.0, projection weight-concat + Split (numerically exact); see onnx/.
• Toolchain: QAIRT 2.47.0, opset 20, float DLC (no quant), offline HTP context-binary generation for soc_id 77 / dsp_arch v73, O3.
• Path: fused ONNX → qairt-converter DLC → CPU-backend equivalence check → qnn-context-binary-generator (.bin).
• Graph names unchanged (vision, action_step) → drop-in for the resident runtime.
