Researchers have introduced SMoES, a novel approach for guiding expert routing in Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) vision-language models (VLMs). This method utilizes dynamic soft modality scores to account for layer-dependent fusion patterns, improving both the effectiveness and efficiency of these models. Experiments show SMoES can lead to significant gains in multimodal and language tasks, while also reducing communication overhead and increasing throughput in realistic deployments. AI
