Recommender systems increasingly face a choice among heterogeneous agents -- collaborative filters, sequential models, content-based retrievers, and LLM-based rerankers -- yet no single agent is uniformly best. We study this choice as task-aware agent ranking under cost constraints using RouteRec, a framework that compares request-level hard selection with item-level learned aggregation over four traditional recommender agents and one LLM reranker agent.

arXiv:2607. 08780v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models activate only a sparse subset of experts per token, yet consecutive tokens frequently activate different experts -- causing constant weight swapping between slow storage and fast memory on edge devices.
