Efficient Mixture-of-Experts with Speculative Decoding via Expert Coactivation
Kumari Nishu, Han-Byul Kim, Santosh Chilkunda +13
Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models are increasingly deployed alongside Speculative Decoding (SD) to accelerate inference, but combining the two is challenging. SD improves the inferen…
SpecMD: A Comprehensive Study On Speculative Expert Prefetching
Duc Hoang, Ajay Jaiswal, Mohammad Samragh +1
Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models enable sparse expert activation, meaning that only a subset of the model's parameters is used during each inference. However, to translate this spar…
Weight subcloning: direct initialization of transformers using larger pretrained ones
Mohammad Samragh, Mehrdad Farajtabar, Sachin Mehta +5
Training large transformer models from scratch for a target task requires lots of data and is computationally demanding. The usual practice of transfer learning overcomes this chal…
