TEAM: Temporal-Spatial Consistency Guided Expert Activation for MoE Diffusion Language Model Acceleration

arXiv:2602.08404v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) have recently gained significant attention due to their inherent support for parallel decoding. Building on this paradigm, Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) dLLMs with autoregressive (AR) initialization have further demonstrated strong performance competitive with mainstream AR models. However, we identify a fundamental mismatch between MoE architectures and diffusion-based decoding. Specifically, a large number of experts are activated at each denoising step, while only a small subset of tokens is ultimately ac
Ongoing research into more efficient large language models (LLMs) drives innovation in diffusion-based architectures to overcome current limitations.
This development could significantly accelerate the performance and reduce the computational cost of next-generation AI models, impacting deployment and scalability.
The efficiency and feasibility of Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) diffusion language models are improved, making them more competitive for practical applications.
