arXiv:2607. 00162v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) reparameterizes weight updates in a fixed basis: low-rank adapters operate in the spatial domain, while a recent line of spectral methods operates in a fixed Fourier domain.
As large language models (LLMs) scale rapidly, dense full-parameter adaptation becomes increasingly expensive, motivating sparse and modular architectures such as Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models. This...

The paper introduces VANE, a new routing strategy for Mixture-of-LoRA-experts that scores experts based on the expected loss reduction of their updates rather than token similarity. By decomposing each expert into a reader and writer, VANE evaluates all reader–writer pairs using a low‑rank compass that predicts the descent direction, enabling efficient top‑k selection with additive gates. Experiments on Llama‑3 models show VANE outperforms twelve PEFT and MoE‑LoRA baselines while using fewer trainable parameters and providing router scores that better reflect expert usefulness.

arXiv:2606. 12883v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA), the scaling factor $\alpha$ is often treated as a mere complement to the learning rate, yet its role in optimization remains poorly understood.
The paper introduces FHEAT, a fractional diffusion operator derived from the discrete cosine transform, to learn how much spectral mixing each stage of a 3D medical segmentation network should perform. By reparameterizing the operator with a semigroup time, the authors enable the optimizer to decide whether global mixing is needed, resulting in a lightweight U‑shaped architecture (Light‑UNETR) paired with a Kolmogorov‑Arnold mixer (KAN3D). In semi‑supervised experiments, FHEAT‑Seg achieves state‑of‑the‑art Dice scores while dramatically reducing FLOPs through learned spectral sparsification.
arXiv:2607. 28308v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse mixture-of-experts (MoE) language models route each token to multiple experts, suggesting a geometric account of their benefit: co-selected experts should contribute distinct representation directions.
