Knowledge Injection Exists in MoE? Exploring Expert-Aware Contrast Decoding in MoE for Mitigating LLMs'Hallucinations

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.20426v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing LLM hallucination mitigation methods, including prompt engineering and model optimization, either hardly alter models'internal knowledge or have poor cross-domain generalization. Contrastive decoding mitigates hallucinations by using layer-wise differences in LLMs. However, prior studies only explore transformer-based models (e.g., GPT), ignoring other effective frameworks like mixture-of-experts (MoE) models. Since MoE alters the traditional transformer architecture, we conduct empirical studies to investigate whether similar layer-wise differences exist in MoEs. Our results show that they do not exist in MoE with shared experts; nevertheless, across different MoEs, higher layers exhibit distinct expert activation patterns between
