A new research paper introduces a method to reduce the number of reasoning tokens and latency in Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models without requiring retraining. By adjusting the router at inference time to allocate more expert capacity to the final transformer layers, the model achieves shorter reasoning trajectories. This technique, applied to Qwen 3.6 35B A3B to create Qwen 3.6 35B A4B+, resulted in an 8.5% reduction in mean reasoning tokens and a 10.9% drop in latency, while maintaining accuracy. AI
IMPACT This technique could lead to more efficient and faster inference for large language models without costly retraining.
