arXiv:2606. 12479v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) routing has emerged as an effective paradigm for leveraging the complementary strengths of multiple LLMs through dynamic model and reasoning-strategy selection.
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.

CounterRoute is an online reinforcement‑learning framework that jointly learns how to route a language model’s reasoning between a ‘think’ and a ‘direct answer’ mode, using a single shared policy derived from a dual‑mode checkpoint. It employs counterfactual rollouts to credit routing decisions and a curriculum that starts with forced dual‑mode rollouts before shifting to self‑routed updates, achieving better accuracy‑efficiency trade‑offs across nine benchmarks. The method reduces generated tokens by up to 51% on Qwen3‑8B while improving macro‑average accuracy, and its routing strategy generalizes to unseen coding, science, and commonsense tasks.
The paper introduces a history‑aware offline reinforcement learning policy that predicts iterative cost weights for routing in dense integrated circuit designs. By incorporating a lightweight LSTM and additional router features, the policy retains sequence context and improves convergence across various placement densities and guide qualities. Integrated into any cost‑based router with minimal changes, the approach reduces design rule violations by an average of 92% and cuts runtime by 10%.
