English calibration fails Lithuanian MoE models, study finds

A new study on expert-pruned Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language models reveals that English calibration does not effectively transfer to Lithuanian. When pruning MoE models using English calibration data, Lithuanian comprehension scores dropped significantly, while English comprehension remained largely unaffected or even improved slightly. This asymmetry suggests that MoE models require language-specific calibration to maintain performance across different languages. AI

IMPACT Highlights the need for language-specific calibration in MoE models to avoid performance degradation in non-English languages.

    English Calibration Erodes Lithuanian in Expert-Pruned Mixture-of-Experts Language Models

    Expert pruning compresses Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language models by removing the experts that a calibration set marks as unimportant. Studies of high-resource languages largely find that English calibration transfers well to other languages. We test this for Lithuanian: we prun…
