class QConfig:
    r"""
    A config class indicating how to do quantize toward :class:`~.QATModule`'s
    ``activation`` and ``weight``. See :meth:`~.QATModule.set_qconfig` for detail usage.

    :param weight_observer: interface to instantiate an :class:`~.Observer` indicating
        how to collect scales and zero_point of wegiht.
    :param act_observer: similar to ``weight_observer`` but toward activation.
    :param weight_fake_quant: interface to instantiate a :class:`~.FakeQuantize` indicating
        how to do fake_quant calculation.
    :param act_observer: similar to ``weight_fake_quant`` but toward activation.

    Examples:

    .. code-block::

        # Default EMA QConfig for QAT.
        ema_fakequant_qconfig = QConfig(
            weight_observer=partial(MinMaxObserver, dtype="qint8", narrow_range=True),
            act_observer=partial(ExponentialMovingAverageObserver, dtype="qint8", narrow_range=False),
            weight_fake_quant=partial(FakeQuantize, dtype="qint8", narrow_range=True),
            act_fake_quant=partial(FakeQuantize, dtype="qint8", narrow_range=False),
        )

    Each parameter is a ``class`` rather than an instance. And we recommand using ``functools.partial``
    to add initialization parameters of the ``class``, so that don't need to provide parameters in
    :meth:`~.QATModule.set_qconfig`.

    Usually we set ``narrow_range`` of weight related paramters to ``True`` and of activation related
    parameters to ``False``. For the result of multiplication and addition as ``a * b + c * d``, if
    four variables are all -128 of dtype ``qint8``, then the result will be ``2^15`` and cause overflow.
    Weights are commonly calculated in this way, so needed to narrow the range.
