Sticky Routing: Training MoE Models for Memory-Efficient Inference
Article summary
Quick briefing — cleaned from the original RSS feed
arXiv:2607.08780v1 Announce Type: new 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. Existing remedies are either system-level (caching heuristics) or post-hoc (router fine-tuning), leaving the root cause unchanged during pretraining. We propose StickyMoE, a differentiable routing consistency loss…
