[//]: # (## Work In Progress. Feedbacks are welcome!) ### Description This PR adds a few properties, methods and factories to Tensor type to support IO-binding feature. This will allow user to create tensor from GPU/CPU bound data without a force transferring of data between CPU and GPU. This change is a way to resolve #15312 ### Change Summary 1. Add properties to `Tensor` type: a. `location`: indicating where the data is sitting. valid values are `cpu`, `cpu-pinned`, `texture`, `gpu-buffer`. b. `texture`: sit side to `data`, a readonly property of `WebGLTexture` type. available only when `location === 'texture'` c. `gpuBuffer`: sit side to `data`, a readonly property of `GPUBuffer` type. available only when `location === 'gpu-buffer'` 2. Add methods to `Tensor` type (usually dealing with inference outputs): - async function `getData()` allows user to download data from GPU to CPU manually. - function `dispose()` allows user to release GPU resources manually. 3. Add factories for creating `Tensor` instances: a. `fromTexture()` to create a WebGL texture bound tensor data b. `fromGpuBuffer()` to create a WebGPUBuffer bound tensor data c. `fromPinnedBuffer()` to create a tensor using a CPU pinned buffer ### Examples: create tensors from texture and pass to inference session as inputs ```js // when create session, specify we prefer 'image_output:0' to be stored on GPU as texture const session = await InferenceSession.create('./my_model.onnx', { executionProviders: [ 'webgl' ], preferredOutputLocation: { 'image_output:0': 'texture' } }); ... const myImageTexture = getTexture(); // user's function to get a texture const myFeeds = { input0: Tensor.fromTexture(myImageTexture, { width: 224, height: 224 }) }; // shape [1, 224, 224, 4], RGBA format. const results = await session.run(myFeeds); const myOutputTexture = results['image_output:0'].texture; ``` |

ONNX Runtime Web
ONNX Runtime Web is a Javascript library for running ONNX models on browsers and on Node.js.
ONNX Runtime Web has adopted WebAssembly and WebGL technologies for providing an optimized ONNX model inference runtime for both CPUs and GPUs.
Why ONNX models
The Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX) is an open standard for representing machine learning models. The biggest advantage of ONNX is that it allows interoperability across different open source AI frameworks, which itself offers more flexibility for AI frameworks adoption.
Why ONNX Runtime Web
With ONNX Runtime Web, web developers can score models directly on browsers with various benefits including reducing server-client communication and protecting user privacy, as well as offering install-free and cross-platform in-browser ML experience.
ONNX Runtime Web can run on both CPU and GPU. On CPU side, WebAssembly is adopted to execute the model at near-native speed. ONNX Runtime Web complies the native ONNX Runtime CPU engine into WebAssembly backend by using Emscripten, so it supports most functionalities native ONNX Runtime offers, including full ONNX operator coverage, multi-threading, ONNX Runtime Quantization as well as ONNX Runtime Mobile. For performance acceleration with GPUs, ONNX Runtime Web leverages WebGL, a popular standard for accessing GPU capabilities. We are keeping improving op coverage and optimizing performance in WebGL backend.
See Compatibility and Operators Supported for a list of platforms and operators ONNX Runtime Web currently supports.
Usage
Refer to ONNX Runtime JavaScript examples for samples and tutorials.

Operators
WebAssembly backend
ONNX Runtime Web currently support all operators in ai.onnx and ai.onnx.ml.
WebGL backend
ONNX Runtime Web currently supports a subset of operators in ai.onnx operator set. See webgl-operators.md for a complete, detailed list of which ONNX operators are supported by WebGL backend.
WebGPU backend
WebGPU backend is still an experimental feature. See webgpu-operators.md for a detailed list of which ONNX operators are supported by WebGPU backend.
