Skill-Based Mixture-of-Experts: Adaptive Routing for Heterogeneous Reasoning via Inferred Skills

ArXi:2503.05641v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Combining existing pre-trained LLMs is a promising approach for diverse reasoning tasks. However, task-level expert selection is often too coarse-grained, since different instances may require different expertise. To address this, we propose Skill-MoE, a symbolic, skill-based, and gradient-free Mixture-of-Experts framework for instance-level expert selection. Skill-MoE infers skills (e.g., algebra in mathematics) from each query, selects experts based on skill relevance, and lets each expert generate its own reasoning.
