arXiv:2610. 23006v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models reduce inference computation through sparse expert activation, but their large expert memory footprint often exceeds GPU capacity, making expert offloading necessary for memory-constrained inference.
arXiv:2607. 24787v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models expand foundation model capacity through conditional expert activation, but their full expert pools remain difficult to deploy under limited accelerator memory.
arXiv:2608. 11688v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models are attractive for edge deployment because they provide high model capacity while activating only a small subset of parameters per token, improving compute efficiency.
Specter is an inference system for mixture-of-experts (MoE) models that uses quantization to enable speculative decoding and expert offloading. By running a lightweight quantized draft model on the device, Specter predicts future expert usage and pre‑organizes expert movement, reducing PCIe I/O bottlenecks. The approach yields an average 1.50× speedup (up to 1.88×) in time per output token compared to state‑of‑the‑art systems, making single‑GPU MoE inference more practical on commodity hardware.
arXiv:2606. 00735v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In distributed Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) inference, input-dependent token routing interacts with GPU performance variability to create persistent stragglers under synchronized execution, where the slowest GPU determines layer latency.
arXiv:2607. 10183v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Running large language models on consumer devices such as laptops and desktops is challenging because model weights often exceed GPU memory capacity, making offloading inference necessary to extend effective model capacity with CPU memory.

arXiv:2607. 16184v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) is a popular class of large language models (LLMs), offering high efficiency and accuracy.
The paper introduces a hardware-software co‑design framework that compresses Mixture‑of‑Experts (MoE) model weights into low‑precision, hardware‑native sparse representations, enabling efficient execution on Sparse Tensor Cores (SpTCs). By relaxing discrete support selection through continuous reparameterization, the method jointly optimizes quantized weights and supports a router‑weighted reconstruction objective, achieving up to 4.35 percentage‑point gains in joint sparse‑quantization accuracy while retaining 96.09% of the original model’s performance. A custom grouped sparse GEMM kernel further boosts inference speed, outperforming NVIDIA’s baseline by up to 1.65× and reducing latency by up to 4.03× on B200 GPUs.
