The paper introduces Federation of Experts (FoE), a new architecture that reorganizes the mixture-of-experts (MoE) block in transformer layers into multiple MoE clusters. Each cluster handles a single KV head, and expert parallelism is applied within clusters while a sum operation synchronizes post‑attention residuals across clusters. FoE eliminates all‑to‑all communication on a single GPU and limits it to intra‑node communication in multi‑node setups, leading to significant reductions in inference latency and throughput improvements on LongBench.

arXiv:2606. 15453v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) based large language models (LLMs), such as Qwen and DeepSeek, have recently emerged as an effective approach to improving model capacity without proportionally increasing computational cost.
The paper introduces FedTAR, a task-aware federated fine‑tuning approach for Mixture‑of‑Experts (MoE) large language models. FedTAR links local client updates to task preferences using routing outputs and Singular Value Decomposition to extract low‑dimensional task coordinates and update directions. It then aggregates updates within and across task clusters, reconstructing the final update to preserve expert specialization and reduce interference, achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance on four benchmark tasks under non‑IID settings.

The paper introduces CS-MoE, a Transformer architecture that shares experts across layers to reduce inter‑layer parameter redundancy. By combining layer‑independent experts with a globally shared expert pool, CS‑MoE allows elastic control over token‑level parameter activation and computational cost. Experiments show that CS‑MoE achieves lower perplexity than equal‑scale dense Transformers while activating only 55% of parameters, and its performance scales with the number of activated experts, approaching MoE performance within a fixed FLOPs budget.
arXiv:2607. 24434v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language models are attractive for end-device deployment because only a small subset of experts is active per token, but their routed expert weights often exceed accelerator memory.
