SHAPE: Coalition-Aware Expert Pruning for Sparse Mixture-of-Experts LLMs

Researchers introduce SHAPE, a novel expert pruning framework for Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language models that reduces memory requirements by up to 40% without retraining. Unlike traditional pruning methods that evaluate experts independently, SHAPE models expert cooperation using game theory, identifying which expert combinations matter most for model performance.

When Data Is Scarce: Scaling Sparse Language Models with Repeated Training

Researchers demonstrate that sparse neural networks can improve scaling efficiency in data-limited training scenarios, where models must train multiple epochs on repeated data. The study introduces a scaling law predicting performance across varying sparsity levels (up to 93.75%), finding that moderate sparsity around 50% optimizes loss while higher sparsity improves compute efficiency, challenging assumptions that sparsity is purely an efficiency tool.

Beyond Task-Agnostic: Task-Aware Grouping for Communication-Efficient Multi-Task MoE Inference

Researchers propose Task-Aware Coactivation Grouping (TACG), a framework for optimizing Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model inference across distributed GPUs by grouping experts based on task-specific activation patterns rather than global averages. The approach reduces communication costs by 31.39% while maintaining load balance, addressing a critical efficiency bottleneck in multi-task AI serving.
