Description

Hi I am wondering if there is a way to replace some operators in a GEMM operator in cutlass? For example, if I want to replace multiplication with addition and replace the accumulation with shifting, is there a way to only modify these operations while keeping the rest gemm unchanged?

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing CUTLASS's GEMM customization mechanisms and determine whether multiplication and accumulation can be replaced independently while retaining the rest of GEMM. Done means identifying and documenting a supported approach, or establishing that this requires broader design work.
