Budget-Adaptive Routing: Skipping the Weak When the Strong Answers Anyway

arXiv:2606. 30919v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Edge-cloud inference collaborations are often designed with a routing estimator that decides whether to offload each frame from weak models at the edge to stronger models in the cloud.

End-to-End Dynamic Sparsity for Resource-Adaptive LLM Inference

arXiv:2606. 27743v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) inference is typically deployed under a static resource assumption, where models execute a fixed computational graph regardless of the runtime environment.

Denial of Deadline: Network-Driven Accuracy Collapse in Distributed Inference Pipelines

arXiv:2607. 24692v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Inference systems increasingly combine a fast path that returns predictions within the application's latency deadline together with a higher-accuracy slow path that runs higher-compute methods on stronger, remote hardware, so its results can be returned on time and combined with the fast path predictions.

Sigma-Branch: Hierarchical Single-Path Network Reconstruction for Dynamic Inference with Reduced Active Parameters

arXiv:2606. 09924v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying deep neural networks on memory-constrained edge accelerators is bottlenecked by per-inference off-chip weight transfer rather than computation: the dense network cannot be retained on-chip, and every parameter must be loaded for every input.
