Don't Skip the Baseline: A Controlled Comparison of Dynamic Expert Skipping in MoEs

arXiv:2610.28369v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A growing body of work proposes dynamic expert-skipping methods for Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models that adjust the number of experts activated per token during inference, aiming to preserve model quality while further reducing the number of active parameters. These methods have added calibrated importance scores, inter-expert similarity metrics, or learned per-token allocators in order to identify experts to skip. However, different calibration regimes, different reductions in the effective number of experts, and evaluation suites make compari
