MoE Router-Guided Clustering for Heterogeneous Federated Instruction Tuning
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.15311v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated instruction fine-tuning enables Large Language Models (LLMs) to adapt to decentralized, privacy-sensitive data without requiring data sharing. Recent Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) LLMs are particularly attractive for federated learning because their sparse activation reduces computation and communication while scaling model capacity. However, existing federated MoE methods primarily focus on parameter aggregation and personalization, overlooking the routing behavior of MoE models as a source of information for client collaboration.
