| ## Description |
| |
| BERT embedding fusion: looks up word and position tables, optionally adds a segment table, then applies layer normalization. A segment table without IDs uses row 0. `embedding_sum` is the pre-normalization sum. `mask_index` is the first zero or the sequence length; without `mask`, it is zero. Batch and sequence dimensions must be non-empty. |
| |
| See the [ONNX Runtime `EmbedLayerNormalization` contrib-operator spec](https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime/blob/main/docs/ContribOperators.md#com.microsoft.EmbedLayerNormalization) for the reference semantics. |

| ## Inputs |
| |
| | Name | Bind key | Logical dtype | WebGPU storage | Rank | Shape | Description | Presence | |
| | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | |
| | `input_ids` | `inputIdsT` | `T1` | `int32` | `2` | — | Word ids of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`. | required | |
| | `segment_ids` | `segmentIdsT` | `T1` | `int32` | `2` | — | Segment ids `(batch_size, sequence_length)`. Requires `segment_embedding`; when omitted with that table present, every token uses row 0. Values must be valid non-negative table-row indices. | optional | |
| | `word_embedding` | `wordEmbeddingT` | `T` | same as logical dtype | `2` | — | Non-empty word embedding table `(vocab, hidden_size)`. Every `input_ids` value must be a valid non-negative row index. | required | |
| | `position_embedding` | `positionEmbeddingT` | `T` | same as logical dtype | `2` | — | Non-empty position embedding table `(max_positions, hidden_size)`. Without `position_ids`, it must contain at least `sequence_length` rows. | required | |
| | `segment_embedding` | `segmentEmbeddingT` | `T` | same as logical dtype | `2` | — | Non-empty segment embedding table `(segments, hidden_size)`. If `segment_ids` is absent, row 0 is used for every token. | optional | |
| | `gamma` | `gammaT` | `T` | same as logical dtype | `1` | — | Layer-normalization scale of shape `(hidden_size)`. | required | |
| | `beta` | `betaT` | `T` | same as logical dtype | `1` | — | Layer-normalization bias of shape `(hidden_size)`. | required | |
| | `mask` | `maskT` | `T1` | `int32` | `2` | — | Attention mask of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`. Only used to produce `mask_index`. | optional | |
| | `position_ids` | `positionIdsT` | `T1` | `int32` | `2` | — | Position ids `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, or `(1, sequence_length)` to share one row across the batch. Values must be valid non-negative table-row indices; absent uses the position within the sequence. | optional | |
|
|
| ## Outputs |
|
|
| | Name | Bind key | Logical dtype | WebGPU storage | Rank | Shape | Description | Presence | |
| | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | |
| | `output` | `outputT` | `T` | same as logical dtype | `3` | derived; see description | Normalized embeddings of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`. | required | |
| | `mask_index` | `maskIndexT` | `T1` | `int32` | `1` | `[input_ids[0]]` | Position of the first zero in each mask row, or `sequence_length` when no zero exists; shape `(batch_size)`. It is zero when the optional mask input is absent. | optional | |
| | `embedding_sum` | `embeddingSumT` | `T` | same as logical dtype | `3` | derived; see description | The summed embeddings before normalization, including the segment term when present. Float16 uses staged `(word + segment) + position`; float32 uses `(word + position) + segment`. | optional | |

| ## Attributes |
|
|
| Attributes and default values (overridable per request): |
|
|
| | Attribute | Default | Description | |
| | --- | --- | --- | |
| | `epsilon` | `9.999999960041972e-13` | Non-negative epsilon added to the layer-normalization variance before taking the square root. | |
| | `mask_index_type` | — | Optional shape-inference hint for the `mask_index` output type. The schema's `T1` constraint fixes the runtime tensor type to int32. | |
|
|
| ## Type constraints |
|
|
| | Variable | Allowed dtypes | |
| | --- | --- | |
| | `T` | `float32`, `float16` | |

|
| ## Use with `@huggingface/kernels` |
|
|
| The loader derives every required output's shape and logical dtype from the manifest contract and this call. |
| It then allocates the result tensors automatically. |
|
|
| The `version: 1` option selects the published kernel contract; it is independent of any operator opset, contrib `since_version`, or model version. |
|
|
| Replace each `*Data` placeholder with a typed array containing the corresponding input data. |
|
|
| ```js |
| import { getKernel } from "@huggingface/kernels"; |
| |
| const kernel = await getKernel("webgpu-kernels/com.microsoft.EmbedLayerNormalization", { version: 1 }); |
| const { outputT } = await kernel({ |
| inputIdsT: { data: inputIdsTData, shape: [1, 2] }, |
| wordEmbeddingT: { data: wordEmbeddingTData, shape: [2, 2] }, |
| positionEmbeddingT: { data: positionEmbeddingTData, shape: [2, 2] }, |
| gammaT: { data: gammaTData, shape: [2] }, |
| betaT: { data: betaTData, shape: [2] }, |
| }); |
| ``` |
