Description

squarepulse allocated its output via torch.zeros(t.shape), which defaults to a CPU float32 tensor regardless of the input tensor's device or dtype. This caused CUDA callers to silently receive a CPU result, breaking downstream transforms when GPU tensors were passed.

This fix allocates the output on the input tensor's device, and preserves the input's floating-point dtype. Integer inputs still promote to the default float dtype (matching torch.zeros behavior).

Diff

-    y = torch.zeros(t.shape)
+    y = torch.zeros(t.shape, device=t.device, dtype=t.dtype if t.is_floating_point() else None)

Types of changes

  • Non-breaking change (fix or new feature that would not break existing functionality).
  • Breaking change (fix or new feature that would cause existing functionality to change).
  • New tests added to cover the changes.
  • Integration tests passed locally by running ./runtests.sh -f -u --net --coverage.
  • Quick tests passed locally by running ./runtests.sh --quick --unittests --disttests.
  • In-line docstrings updated.
  • Documentation updated, tested make html command in the docs/ folder.

Allocate the squarepulse output on the input tensor's device (and floating
dtype) so CUDA callers no longer silently get a CPU result. Integer inputs
still promote to the default float dtype.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

squarepulse now preserves floating-point input dtypes and promotes non-floating inputs to PyTorch’s default dtype. It continues to preserve shape and device. New tests cover CPU and CUDA inputs, output placement, dtype, shape, binary values, and reference-value matching.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 6be9b

The change preserves the input tensor’s device and floating-point dtype while retaining existing integer promotion behavior. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains; documenting the updated output contract is a minor follow-up.

Comment thread monai/transforms/utils.py Outdated
Hard-pinning the output buffer to float32 silently downcast float64
input and contradicted the dtype assertion in the new test. Preserve
the input's floating dtype and promote integer/bool input to the
default dtype.

Document the new output dtype contract.

squarepulse now preserves floating-point t.dtype and promotes non-floating inputs to torch.get_default_dtype(). Update the Google-style docstring to document sig, duty, the returned shape/device, and this dtype behavior.

As per path instructions, Python definitions must use Google-style docstrings that document arguments, return values, and raised exceptions.

Proposed docstring update
 def squarepulse(sig, duty: float = 0.5):
     """
-    compute squarepulse using pytorch
+    Compute a square pulse using PyTorch.
+
+    Args:
+        sig: Input signal tensor or tensor-like value.
+        duty: Duty cycle used to generate the pulse.
+
+    Returns:
+        A tensor with the same shape and device as the input. Floating-point
+        inputs preserve their dtype; other inputs use PyTorch's default dtype.
