arXiv:2606. 04438v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) and looped architectures scale models along two orthogonal axes, namely parameter capacity and effective depth.
arXiv:2605. 09165v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Looped language models repeat a set of transformer layers through depth, reducing memory costs and providing natural early-exit points at loop boundaries.
arXiv:2606. 16825v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures efficiently scale Large Language Models (LLMs) by activating only a small fraction of their experts per token, yet the full parameter count - dominated by the expert parameters - must be held in training and inference memory.
arXiv:2607. 06601v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conditional computation can decouple language model quality from per-token inference cost, yet leading techniques act on a single axis in isolation: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) sparsifies the FFN, Mixture-of-Depths (MoD) skips whole transformer blocks, and KV-cache quantization compresses attention memory.
arXiv:2607. 22577v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scaling large language models (LLMs) has driven their success, yet dense Transformers couple capacity and computation: every parameter is activated for every token, making training and inference costs grow linearly with model size-a critical bottleneck as models approach trillion-parameter regimes.
arXiv:2608. 12385v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: As large language models serve ever more requests, cumulative inference cost is growing relative to the one-time cost of training.
arXiv:2606. 18023v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Looped Transformers scale latent computation by repeatedly applying shared blocks, but sequential looping increases latency and KV-cache memory with the loop count.
arXiv:2607. 10110v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent work on looped language models suggests that many reasoning problems benefit from greater computational depth rather than from additional independent parameters.
arXiv:2608. 10605v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In large-scale pretraining, the algorithm, architecture, and systems decisions are conventionally made in disconnected stages.
arXiv:2608. 12385v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As large language models serve more requests, cumulative inference cost is becoming increasingly important relative to one-time training cost.
arXiv:2608. 09444v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A main promise of looped language models (LMs) is depth-adaptive inference.
Scaling Large Language Models (LLMs) has been driven mainly by enlarging the Transformer backbone, but for an already-strong model this requires another round of costly pretraining. We study whether an existing backbone can keep improving by allocating more computation to each token while leaving the Transformer backbone fixed.
arXiv:2608. 03457v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion language models (dLLMs) offer an alternative to autoregressive (AR) language modeling, yet the scaling behavior of Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) dLLMs remains poorly understood.
