December 2025 monthly summary for quic/aimet: Delivered end-to-end quantization enhancements and test stability improvements that increase model efficiency, reliability, and release readiness. Key capabilities shipped include Torch Quantsim integration with Torch Nightly workflow, min-max quantization, adaptive rounding, mixed-precision support, and reintroduced padding for data movement ops. ONNX Nightly workflow was stabilized with a modular Python environment, deduped results, timestamped test reports, restored models, and streamlined imports to reduce false positives. Fixed accuracy display formatting to remove double percentage multipliers, ensuring correct metric interpretation. Release notes updated for version 2.21.0 to reflect ONNX and PyTorch improvements. Overall impact: smoother quantization deployment, fewer CI failures, and clearer release communication. Technologies demonstrated: PyTorch quantization, Quantsim, mixed precision, adaround, ONNX nightly tests, virtual environments, and CI workflow optimization.
