Thank you @wanchaol, @jerryzh168. I’ll try again

But I’ve already opened a topic with such question and @supriyar has said that it is needed to `jit.trace` before `onnx.export` if we work with quantized model.  
Here’s the refference [ONNX export of quantized model](https://discuss.pytorch.org/t/onnx-export-of-quantized-model/76884/8)
