The proposed Heterogeneous Mixture of Experts (HMoE) architecture offers a significant improvement over traditional homogeneous MoE models by allowing experts to have diverse capacities, enabling them to specialize in handling varying token complexities more effectively. The heterogeneous experts are trained using a novel objective that encourages the frequent activation of smaller experts, leading to improved computational efficiency and parameter utilization. Experimental results demonstrate that HMoE achieves lower loss with fewer activated parameters and outperforms conventional homogeneous MoE models on various pre-training evaluation benchmarks.

HMoE is a new way to make computers learn from data. It’s like having many small brains working together, each one good at doing something different. This helps the computer learn more effectively and use less energy. The new way of training these “brains” makes sure that they work well together and don’t waste time or energy.
