arXiv:2608. 12146v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models for reinforcement learning (RL) couples two load-balancing problems: sequence composition determines dense attention work in each data-parallel microbatch, while token routing determines sparse expert work on expert-parallel ranks.

arXiv:2608. 10392v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mixture-of-experts (MoE) models have recently moved beyond routing a fixed number of complete experts.
MetaNet is a support‑set controller that predicts, for each layer of a Mixture‑of‑Experts model, an expert‑retention threshold and a bounded routing bias while keeping the backbone, experts, and router frozen. On DeepSeek‑MoE‑16B‑Chat, MetaNet offers a tunable trade‑off between accuracy and expert activation: a conservative setting activates 3.61 experts on average (40% fewer than a fixed k=6) with comparable MMLU accuracy, whereas an aggressive setting activates only 2.28 experts (62% fewer) with a modest accuracy drop. The MMLU‑trained controller also transfers to C‑Eval, activating 2.90 experts on average (52% fewer than fixed k=6) at 0.386 accuracy.
ACE introduces a training‑free, calibration‑free framework for adaptive expert skipping in Mixture‑of‑Experts LLMs. It combines a Global Spectral Proxy that estimates global transformation capacity with a Router‑Conditioned Refinement that builds expert‑specific direction prototypes, enabling the model to skip low‑contribution experts while always keeping the top‑1 expert. Offline computation of expert statistics leaves only lightweight table lookups during inference, and experiments on three MoE‑based LLMs show ACE outperforms static and dynamic baselines, especially at high skipping ratios.
The paper introduces Ban&Pick, a post‑training, plug‑and‑play routing strategy for Sparse Mixture‑of‑Experts large language models. It identifies and reinforces a small group of highly influential experts while dynamically pruning redundant ones, leading to accuracy gains across math, code, and reasoning benchmarks. Experiments on DeepSeek and Qwen3 show notable performance improvements and a 1.25× inference speedup without retraining or architectural changes.

arXiv:2607. 06601v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conditional computation can decouple language model quality from per-token inference cost, yet leading techniques act on a single axis in isolation: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) sparsifies the FFN, Mixture-of-Depths (MoD) skips whole transformer blocks, and KV-cache quantization compresses attention memory.
arXiv:2606. 00395v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixture of Experts (MoE) Large Language Models (LLMs) achieve strong performance at scale.
Modern reinforcement learning (RL) post-training pipelines for large language models (LLMs) increasingly combine rollout workloads across multiple domains and feedback paradigms. Prefix-aware routing improves inference efficiency through cache reuse and load balancing, but it does not control how heterogeneous rollout sessions compete for KV-cache capacity.
arXiv:2608. 08853v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) routers commonly use the same scores both to select experts and to weight their already-computed outputs.
