What does this PR do?

Type of change: new example (tutorial)

Adds examples/megatron_bridge/tutorials/NemotronH-Omni-W4A4-QAD/, a reproducibility tutorial for W4A4 quantization of the language model of a NemotronH omni vision-language checkpoint (NemotronH_Omni_Reasoning_V3), in the same shape as the Qwen3.6 tutorial: results, then data → PTQ → QAD → export → serving.

  • README.md:
    • Results: BF16, PTQ and QAD 200–600 on AA-LCR, SciCode and GPQA Diamond. QAD 600 is within 0.5 points of BF16 on all three.
    • Exact commands, using the stock quantize.py, distill.py --sft_hf_dataset and export_quantized_megatron_to_hf.py.
    • The vLLM serving settings behind the results, and further improvements.
  • build_qad_blend.py: materializes the public Nemotron chat blend used for QAD (35,800 train / 1,000 validation records). It's deterministic: a fixed number of rows per source, taken from the start of each split, then a seeded shuffle.
  • add_nvfp4_kv_scales.py: the recipe's NVFP4 KV quantizers use a constant amax, so the export writes NVFP4 KV metadata but no k_scale/v_scale. The script writes the implied 1/6 scale for each backbone attention layer. It's idempotent and skips the BF16 MTP head.
  • Links: a row in tutorials/README.md and a pointer in examples/megatron_bridge/README.md.

The PTQ recipe is not part of this PR; it will be published separately under modelopt_recipes. Until then the README's PTQ command takes --recipe /path/to/recipe.yaml; I'll fill in the path once it lands.

Depends on #2704 (export mapping and grouped-GEMM experts for NemotronH_Omni_Reasoning_V3), #2587 (distill.py --sft_hf_dataset) and the PTQ recipe. Merge this after them.

Usage

python examples/megatron_bridge/tutorials/NemotronH-Omni-W4A4-QAD/build_qad_blend.py --output_dir /path/to/qad_blend
# PTQ / QAD / export commands: see the tutorial README
python examples/megatron_bridge/tutorials/NemotronH-Omni-W4A4-QAD/add_nvfp4_kv_scales.py /path/to/exported_hf

Testing

Before your PR is "Ready for review"

  • Is this change backward compatible?: N/A (new example)
  • If you copied code from any other sources or added a new PIP dependency, did you follow guidance in CONTRIBUTING.md: N/A
  • Did you write any new necessary tests?: N/A (tutorial; the helper scripts are tutorial utilities)
  • Did you update Changelog?: ❌ Can add an entry if wanted.
  • Did you get Claude approval on this PR?: ❌

Additional Information

  • Commands take the checkpoint as <nemotron_h_omni-checkpoint>.
  • The KV-scale helper works around the exporter not deriving scales for constant-amax quantizers. Fixing that in get_kv_cache_scaling_factor would make the helper unnecessary.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Added an end-to-end tutorial for quantizing and serving NemotronH Omni, covering data preparation, evaluation, Hugging Face export, and vLLM deployment.
    • Added the tutorial to the Megatron Bridge documentation and tutorials listings, with details on its W4A4 quantization and reported evaluation results.
  • New Features
    • Added tools to prepare chat-format training and validation data and to add NVFP4 KV-cache scales to exported checkpoints.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Feature

Suggested reviewers: aanoosheh, achidiac-nv

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to b0adb

The tutorial is not yet reproducible as written. The PTQ recipe has not been published, and the launch commands contain placeholders. Data preparation can silently produce an altered or empty blend and may download very large datasets. Rerunning the KV-scale helper after a partial update can corrupt the exported checkpoint. These issues should be addressed before merge, or explicitly accepted as known limitations of the tutorial.

Exclude tool-call rows or retain their tool schemas.

Nemotron-Agentic-v1 / tool_calling supplies messages and top-level tools. This branch removes tools, while is_text_only_chat_example checks for media rather than tool calls. Text-only tool conversations can therefore enter the QAD blend without their tool definitions, contrary to the tutorial’s stated blend. Reject tool-call rows if this blend must contain no agentic data. (huggingface.co)

Do not silently omit a requested dataset.

If load_dataset fails for a required source, this handler continues and writes a blend with different weights. If every source fails, it still writes empty split files. Fail with the source name instead; make any intentionally optional sources explicit.

Require a nonempty training split.

With --total 32 and the default --num_validation 1000, this slice writes every collected row to validation and leaves train.jsonl empty. A negative validation count also produces unintended slices. Validate the counts against the collected rows before writing either file.

The script also lists `Nemotron-SFT-Instruction-Following-Chat-v2 / reasoning_on` and `Nemotron-Agentic-v1 / tool_calling`; in our run they contributed no records (tool-calling rows are not text-only chat), so the blend has no agentic data. After a seeded shuffle, 1,000 records are held out for validation and 35,800 are used for training.

Use the documented repository path for helper commands.

The workflow specifies a repository mount at /opt/Model-Optimizer, but does not instruct users to change into that directory. This command, and the scale-helper command in Line 168, fail when launched from another working directory. Use absolute paths for both helpers, as the PTQ and export commands do.

Reject an export with no matching attention layers.

If the exported weight names do not match K_PROJ, attention is empty. The script then reports zero additions and exits successfully, although the tutorial requires scales for eight attention layers. Check the expected layer count before modifying the checkpoint so an incompatible export fails clearly.

Preserve scales already stored in the KV-scale shard.

If weight_map already points some scales to model-kv-scales.safetensors but other scales are missing, save_file(scales, ...) replaces the shard with only the missing scales. The index still points to the discarded tensors, so the checkpoint cannot load correctly. Merge with the existing shard before writing, or reject this partial-update state without changing the shard.

Stream each dataset before taking the requested rows.

Without streaming=True, load_dataset downloads and caches dataset files before applying this small split slice. The competitive-programming source alone is listed at 190 GB. This can exhaust disk or delay data preparation even though the script needs only a few thousand rows. Load the named split in streaming mode and bound iteration to want * 3 rows. (huggingface.co)

Fail if source loading leaves no training or validation records.

If every load_dataset call raises, the loop skips every source. These lines then write empty train.jsonl and validation.jsonl files and exit successfully. Reject an insufficient row count before creating the files so a failed Hub fetch does not appear to complete data preparation.

Replace the srun ... placeholders with executable launch instructions.

In each distributed command, ... is a literal shell argument, not a way to set RANK, WORLD_SIZE, or LOCAL_RANK. The PTQ, QAD, and export commands cannot run as shown. Provide an srun invocation or a launch script that sets the documented rank variables.

Replace the literal `srun ...` placeholders in the PTQ, QAD, and export commands
with executable distributed launch instructions that set the documented `RANK`,
`WORLD_SIZE`, and `LOCAL_RANK` variables for each process.

Provide the PTQ recipe before presenting this as a reproduction command.

The tutorial says the required mixed-precision recipe will be published later. /path/to/recipe.yaml therefore has no supplied recipe to reference. A reader cannot reproduce the PTQ checkpoint, and the QAD and export steps depend on that checkpoint. Include the recipe or state that this workflow cannot run until the recipe is available.

Update the Nemotron-H-Omni-W4A4-QAD tutorial so the PTQ command references a
supplied mixed-precision recipe, or clearly state that the PTQ, QAD, and export
workflow cannot run until the recipe is available; do not present
/path/to/recipe.yaml as a reproducible command.
