Sparse by Command: Task-Conditional Compute Skipping for Multi-Task Inference Accelerators
Afzal Ahmad, Gaoyu Mao, Shoubo Hu +4
Multi-task inference models share a single backbone across diverse tasks, yet execute identical computation regardless of which task is active - wasting energy and cycles on task-i…
From Long News to Accurate Forecast: Importance-Aware Fusion and PRM-Guided Reflection for Time Series Forecasting
Mingyang Liu, Qingcan Kang, Yuke Wang +6
Incorporating news into time series forecasting is appealing because news can reveal abrupt exogenous events that historical values alone cannot recover. However, existing LLM-base…
SCOPE: Prompt Evolution for Enhancing Agent Effectiveness
Zehua Pei, Hui-Ling Zhen, Shixiong Kai +4
Large Language Model (LLM) agents are increasingly deployed in environments that generate massive, dynamic contexts. However, a critical bottleneck remains: while agents have acces…
PreMoE: Proactive Inference for Efficient Mixture-of-Experts
Zehua Pei, Ying Zhang, Hui-Ling Zhen +6
Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models offer dynamic computation, but are typically deployed as static full-capacity models, missing opportunities for deployment-specific specialization.…
Analytical FFN-to-MoE Restructuring via Activation Pattern Analysis
Zehua Pei, Hui-Ling Zhen, Lancheng Zou +5
Scaling large language models (LLMs) improves performance but significantly increases inference costs, with feed-forward networks (FFNs) consuming the majority of computational res…
AgentCollab: A Self-Evaluation-Driven Collaboration Paradigm for Efficient LLM Agents
Wenbo Gao, Renxi Liu, Xian Wang +8
Autonomous agents powered by large language models (LLMs) perform complex tasks through long-horizon reasoning and tool interaction, where a fundamental trade-off arises between ex…
