SoftMoE: Soft Differentiable Routing for Mixture-of-Experts in LLMs
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. While this preserves causality and suits autoregressive language models, the discrete top-$k$ operator is not differentiable, forcing a fixed numbe...

Tying the Loop -- Tied Expert Layers in Mixture-of-Experts Language Models
Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures efficiently scale Large Language Models (LLMs) by activating only a small fraction of their experts per token, yet the full parameter count - dominated by the expert parameters - must be held in training and inference memory. To address this, we introduce Expert Tying, an architec...

ReMoE: Boosting Expert Reuse through Router Fine-Tuning in Memory-Constrained MoE LLM Inference
Fine-grained Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models sparsely activate only a subset of experts per token, reducing activated computation while maintaining high model capacity. However, in memory-constrained inference scenarios, only a small set of experts can be cached. Experts not in the cache must be fetched from slow exter...

ReLibra: Routing-Replay-Guided Load Balancing for MoE Training in Reinforcement Learning
Load imbalance is a long-standing challenge in Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) training and is exacerbated in reinforcement learning (RL) for LLMs, where hot experts can shift frequently across micro-batches. Existing MoE training systems rely on historical loads to predict future expert demand, making them less effective und...

SDG-MoE: Signed Debate Graph Mixture-of-Experts
Sparse MoE models achieve a good balance between capacity and compute by routing each token to a small subset of experts. However, in most MoE architectures, once a token is routed, the selected experts process it independently and their outputs are combined via a weighted sum. This leaves open whether enabling communi...

When Are Experts Misrouted? Counterfactual Routing Analysis in Mixture-of-Experts Language Models
Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language models route each token to a small subset of experts, but whether the routes selected by a trained top-$k$ router are good ones is rarely evaluated directly. Holding the model fixed, we compare each standard route against sampled equal-compute alternatives for the same token and score ...

The Myth of Expert Specialization in MoEs: Why Routing Reflects Geometry, Not Necessarily Domain Expertise
Mixture of Experts (MoEs) are now ubiquitous in large language models, yet the mechanisms behind their "expert specialization" remain poorly understood. We show that, since MoE routers are linear maps, hidden state similarity is both necessary and sufficient to explain expert usage similarity, and specialization is the...
