ExFold: Unified Expert Folding for Training-Free MoE Prefill-Decode Acceleration

ExFold is a training‑free expert‑folding framework that jointly accelerates the prefill and decode phases of Mixture‑of‑Experts (MoE) models by projecting the contributions of excluded experts onto a retained expert set using calibrated scalar projectors. It treats both phases as a budgeted output‑approximation problem, achieving token‑level Top‑K folding for prefill and batch‑level expert‑pool folding for decode. Implemented as a plug‑and‑play plugin in vLLM with a lightweight CUDA kernel, ExFold delivers up to 1.41× TTFT and 2.45× TPOT speedups while preserving about 99% of the original model quality.

DraftExpert: Expansion-Aware Self-Speculative Decoding for End-Device MoE Inference

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. We target latency-critical single-user settings where routed experts are staged on demand from CPU memory to a GPU or from Flash to a mobile NPU.

WiSP: A Working-Set View of Mixture-of-Experts Serving on Extremely Low-Resource Hardware

WiSP (Working‑Set Paging) is a routing‑aware expert pager that allows Mixture‑of‑Experts models to run on GPUs that cannot hold the entire expert pool by paging experts in and out of VRAM while preserving byte‑identical outputs. On a 24 GiB RTX 3090, WiSP doubles decode throughput compared to static offload when the model does not fit, and its companion policy MV‑WSA allocates VRAM between resident experts and KV cache based on marginal latency benefit, reducing end‑to‑end time by up to 1.19× without altering model outputs.
