EvoESAP uses evolutionary search guided by a speculative-decoding-inspired ESAP metric to discover non-uniform layer-wise sparsity allocations for MoE expert pruning, improving generation accuracy up to 19.6% at 50% sparsity.
REAM merges experts in MoE LLMs rather than pruning them, often matching uncompressed performance by tuning the mix of calibration data.
CD-MoE condenses fine-grained MoE layers with shared experts into dense layers, retaining 90% accuracy with 27.5% memory cut and 1.26x speedup on DeepSeekMoE-16B, recovering 98% via brief fine-tuning.
Lynx exploits training-induced batch-level expert activation skews via AffinityBinning to reduce invoked experts per batch, delivering up to 1.30x throughput with under 1% accuracy loss across four model families.
GRAPE is a global redundancy-aware pruning strategy for sparse MoEs that dynamically allocates pruning budgets across layers and improves average accuracy by 1.40% over the best local baseline across tested models and settings.
