S2-MoE: Enabling Efficient Self-Speculative Decoding for Mixture-of-Experts on Edge Devices
S2-MoE is a self‑speculative decoding framework designed to make Mixture‑of‑Experts (MoE) inference more efficient on edge devices. It reduces verification overhead by using routing‑aware adaptive speculative expansion, improves verification efficiency with reuse‑aware expert gating, and aligns draft and target execution through shared context. Implemented in llama.cpp, S2‑MoE delivers up to 5.3× speedup (≈2.0× on average) over standard autoregressive decoding across various MoE models and datasets on edge hardware.

Specter: Fast MoE Inference via Quantization-Enabled Multi-Step Speculative Offloading
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.

SpecPrefetch: Parameter-Efficient Expert Prefetching for Sparse MoE Foundation Models
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.

DraftExpert: Expansion-Aware Self-Speculative Decoding for End-Device MoE Inference
Large Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language models are attractive for end-device deployment because only a small subset of experts is active per token, but their routed expert weights often exceed accelerator memory. We target latency-critical single-user settings where routed experts are staged on demand from CPU memory to a GPU or from Flash to a mobile NPU.
