ITC-MoE introduces an Importance-guided Token-aware Compression framework for Mixture-of-Experts Diffusion Language Models. It combines Adaptive Tucker Compression, which uses activation and gradient importance to jointly factorize expert weights and allocate ranks, with Token-aware Compensation and Routing that applies low‑rank adjustments to hot tokens and limits expert candidates for cold tokens. The method achieves significant reductions in computation and storage while maintaining generation quality, exemplified by a 30% compression budget that preserves 96.33% accuracy on MultiArith and delivers up to a 7.22× speedup.
arXiv:2601. 13563v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In current Mixture of Experts (MoE) architectures, linear memory scaling is present, the memory grows as the number of experts increases.
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. Existing evidence often conflates route coherence, candidate quality, and candidate-by-context interaction.

The paper examines how expert pruning—removing low‑importance experts in Mixture‑of‑Experts models—fails when the router is over‑dispersed, a condition caused by aggressive load‑balancing that spreads tokens nearly uniformly across experts. In this regime, traditional importance signals from router probabilities collapse, making perplexity an unreliable predictor of downstream accuracy; for example, the lowest‑perplexity pruning on gpt‑oss‑20B harms mathematical reasoning while the highest‑perplexity pruning preserves it. To address this, the authors introduce Minimax Expert Score Allocation (MESA), a domain‑aware method that iteratively boosts scores for the most affected domain, achieving minimal worst‑case degradation across domains and outperforming baseline pruning strategies on multiple benchmarks while reducing memory usage.
IntBMoE introduces a block‑conditioned mixture‑of‑experts that decouples participation, execution, and materialization by combining dense expert composition with sparse block execution. Each internal layer uses a lightweight hypernetwork to merge all expert bases into a single composed expert, while a router selects only a few blocks per token, keeping compute and memory costs low. Experiments on image classification, language modeling, and sequential recommendation demonstrate consistent performance gains, and the model is deployed in AMap’s generative recommendation system, improving UVCTR by 2.4% in online A/B tests.
