arXiv:2512. 13996v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Sparse Mixture-of-Experts architectures are essential for scaling model capacity efficiently, yet the standard Top-$k$ routing imposes a rigid sparsity pattern that ignores the intrinsic variance in token difficulty and layer-specific computational needs.

MoRE: Mixture of Reused Experts is a hybrid architecture that combines Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) with weight‑sharing techniques. It shares expert pools across adjacent layers while each layer keeps its own router, and introduces lightweight depth embeddings to help shared experts differentiate layer contexts. Experiments on models ranging from 114 M to 1.15 B parameters show MoRE achieves lower perplexity and better downstream performance than standard MoEs and other weight‑sharing models, with only minimal changes to existing MoE implementations.

The paper presents a statistical framework for Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models, treating them as localized aggregation systems. It derives oracle risk bounds that separate approximation, expert‑learning, and router‑estimation errors for both dense and sparse routing with evolving experts. The authors also analyze how sparse Top‑K routing balances computational cost with performance, interpret gating geometrically, and explain how shared experts can capture common predictive structure while allowing routed experts to focus on local residuals.

The paper introduces Ban&Pick, a post‑training, plug‑and‑play routing strategy for Sparse Mixture‑of‑Experts large language models. It identifies and reinforces a small group of highly influential experts while dynamically pruning redundant ones, leading to accuracy gains across math, code, and reasoning benchmarks. Experiments on DeepSeek and Qwen3 show notable performance improvements and a 1.25× inference speedup without retraining or architectural changes.

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.

PCoMoE introduces a path‑compositional execution framework that moves Mixture‑of‑Experts inference from coarse‑grained expert selection to fine‑grained path composition. It uses a path‑level formulation of expert computation, a compatibility‑aware layer‑wise pruning strategy to eliminate low‑value path combinations, and a hardware‑friendly execution engine that reuses sub‑expert structures with bounded overhead. Experiments show up to a 1.31× speedup and a 10% accuracy improvement over existing MoE inference methods.
