Improving Minimax Estimation Rates for Contaminated Mixture of Multinomial Logistic Experts via Expert Heterogeneity
Fanqi Yan, Dung Le, Trang Pham +2
Contaminated mixture of experts (MoE) is motivated by transfer learning methods where a pre-trained model, acting as a frozen expert, is integrated with an adapter model, functioni…

On Minimax Estimation of Parameters in Softmax-Contaminated Mixture of Experts
Fanqi Yan, Huy Nguyen, Dung Le +3
The softmax-contaminated mixture of experts (MoE) model is deployed when a large-scale pre-trained model, which plays the role of a fixed expert, is fine-tuned for learning downstr…

Sigmoid Self-Attention has Lower Sample Complexity than Softmax Self-Attention: A Mixture-of-Experts Perspective
Fanqi Yan, Huy Nguyen, Pedram Akbarian +2
At the core of the popular Transformer architecture is the self-attention mechanism, which dynamically assigns softmax weights to each input token so that the model can focus on th…
