Encoding reference

Encoding families describe logical layout, storage schema, physical storage, and numeric transforms without baking those choices into operation ABIs.

Encoding Role Summary
#encoding.layout.dense address layout Dense row-major address layout.
#encoding.layout.strided address layout Explicit element-stride address layout.
#encoding.operand storage schema Target-independent encoded operand schema.
#encoding.storage physical storage Composes an address layout and storage schema.
#ggml.q4_0 storage schema GGML Q4_0 block storage schema.
#ggml.q4_k storage schema GGML Q4_K super-block storage schema.
#ggml.q6_k storage schema GGML Q6_K super-block storage schema.
#ggml.q8_0 storage schema GGML Q8_0 block storage schema.
#ggml.q8_1_x4 storage schema GGML Vulkan Q8_1 x4 block storage schema.
#transform.hadamard numeric transform Sylvester Hadamard transform over the final vector axis.
