Tsinghua's Meta Expert: Cross-Layer Shared Experts Match MoE With 70-80% of Experts

TsinghuaC3I · hf · 2026-10-23

Researchers from Tsinghua University and Shanghai AI Lab propose Meta Expert, replacing layer-local experts in MoE models with cross-layer shared meta-experts. Empirical comparisons show lower parameter redundancy, lower cross-entropy loss, and higher downstream accuracy; with activation count and granularity fixed, models match Vanilla MoE performance using only 70-80% of the experts, substantially improving storage and retrieval efficiency.
