arXiv:2606. 01062v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models have become a leading approach for decoupling parameter count from computational cost in large language models, yet effectively scaling MoE performance remains a challenge.
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:2606. 17952v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures enable scaling LLM parameters under a fixed inference budget by activating only a small subset of experts via top-$k$ routing.
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.

arXiv:2606. 07500v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Continual learning in Large Language Models (LLMs) is hindered by the plasticity-stability dilemma, where acquiring new capabilities often leads to catastrophic forgetting of previous knowledge.
