SpecDrop: Parameter-Free Category-Conditioned Routing for Modular Specialization

arXiv:2608. 04084v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mixture-of-experts (MoE) networks pursue specialization through learned routers, gates, and load-balancing losses, yet at matched total-parameter budgets learned routers can underperform equal-weight No-Routing baselines.

Federated Lightweight Fine-Tuning

arXiv:2607. 18343v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated fine-tuning is bottlenecked by communication: FedAvg and pseudo-gradient schemes transmit a payload that scales with the model, and gradient compression shrinks it by only a constant factor.
