Sparsely activated Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language models contain substantial structured redundancy among routed experts, but pruning them without downstream calibration data remains challenging. Existing expert-pruning methods typically rely on a single aggregated importance score, which can bias the retained set toward experts favored by dominant calibration patterns.

Deep neural networks have witnessed remarkable advancements in recent years and have become integral to various applications. However, alongside these developments, training and deployment of neural network models on embedding and edge devices face significant challenges due to limited memory and computational resources.
arXiv:2605. 28207v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) is now the dominant architecture for frontier language models, yet it requires all expert parameters to be loaded in memory, making it less preferable for memory-constrained deployment.

Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models achieve strong performance through conditional computation, but their large parameter footprint poses deployment challenges. Prior MoE compression approaches catastrophically fail when evaluated on general-purpose benchmarks beyond commonsense reasoning.
arXiv:2606. 09886v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) large language models achieve strong quality with low per-token compute, yet their deployment is often limited by the memory wall: the full expert pool must remain resident to support token-dependent routing.

arXiv:2608. 12953v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Structured pruning is a promising approach for compressing large language models (LLMs), yet existing methods rely heavily on greedy heuristics that produce myopic decisions, and often fail to precisely meet target compression budgets.
