Fanchen Kong contributed to the ONNX Runtime projects at Mozilla and Microsoft, focusing on performance optimization and cross-platform compatibility in C++ and WebAssembly environments. He enhanced the WASM build by introducing relaxed SIMD min/max semantics, enabling more efficient handling of floating-point operations and improving runtime throughput. In the microsoft/onnxruntime repository, he developed specialized QGEMM micro-kernels and optimized data packing for quantized 8-bit matrix multiplication, reducing inference latency. Additionally, he upgraded XNNPACK integration, ensuring API compatibility and simplifying the runtime by removing unsupported paths. His work demonstrated depth in SIMD, quantization, and deep learning system integration over three months.

July 2025: Focused on upgrading XNNPACK integration within microsoft/onnxruntime, delivering API compatibility with the Execution Provider and simplifying the runtime by removing an unsupported QU8 Average Pooling path. These changes improve cross-platform compatibility, stabilize performance, and lay groundwork for future optimizations. Commit-level detail included for traceability.
