Sparsely Gated Mixture of Expert

Sparsely-gated Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models aim to improve the efficiency and scalability of large neural networks by dividing the computational workload among specialized "expert" sub-networks, activated only when needed. Current research focuses on optimizing MoE architectures for various tasks, including natural language processing, computer vision, and speech recognition, exploring techniques like shortcut connections for faster training and novel adversarial training methods for improved robustness. This approach offers significant potential for reducing computational costs and improving performance in large-scale machine learning applications, particularly for resource-constrained environments and tasks requiring high accuracy.
