🏗️ Architecture Details
Mixture of Experts Layer
The model enhances every other transformer layer with a MoE routing system:
Input Token → Gating Network → Route to Top-2 Experts → Weighted Combination → Output
Key Components:
- 8 Expert Networks: Each specializes in different patterns
- Sparse Gating: Only top-2 experts activated per token
- Load Balancing: Ensures even expert utilization
- Residual Connections: Preserves base model capabilities
Advantages:
- ⚡ 3x more parameter-efficient than dense models
- 🎯 Better specialization for diverse tasks
- 💰 Lower inference cost (sparse activation)
- 📈 Scalable to more experts without linear cost increase
