Scaling Laws for Looped Mixture of Experts

Excerpt

arXiv:2609.40316v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Looped transformers and Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) offer complementary routes to efficient scaling: recurrence increases computational depth at fixed parameters, while MoE sparsity expands total capacity at fixed active compute. Yet existing scaling laws model recurrence or sparsity in isolation. In this work, we introduce Loop Scaling Laws, the first scaling law to jointly model recurrence and sparsity alongside model size and data. At its core is a
