Recent advancements in end-to-end autonomous driving systems (ADSs) underscore their potential for perception and planning capabilities. However, challenges remain. Complex driving scenarios contain rich semantic information, yet ambiguous or noisy semantics can compromise decision reliability, while interference between multiple driving tasks may hinder optimal planning. Furthermore, prolonged inference latency slows decision-making, increasing the risk of unsafe driving behaviors. To address these challenges, we propose ExpertAD, a novel framework that enhances the performance of ADS with Mixture of Experts (MoE) architecture. We introduce a Perception Adapter (PA) to amplify task-critical features, ensuring contextually relevant scene understanding, and a Mixture of Sparse Experts (MoSE) to minimize task interference during prediction, allowing for effective and efficient planning. Our experiments show that ExpertAD reduces average collision rates by up to 20% and inference latency by 25% compared to prior methods. We further evaluate its multi-skill planning capabilities in rare scenarios (e.g., accidents, yielding to emergency vehicles) and demonstrate strong generalization to unseen urban environments. Additionally, we present a case study that illustrates its decision-making process in complex driving scenarios.

Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) is a sparse neural architecture that significantly increases model capacity while maintaining low computational complexity. However, deploying MoE-based large language models (LLMs) on memory-constrained edge devices remains challenging due to their substantial memory requirements. To address this issue, we propose FIRM-MoE, a fine-grained expert offloading framework designed to enable flexible and efficient MoE inference. The core insight of our approach is to reduce the risk of inaccurate expert loading by decomposing each expert into fine-grained sub-experts and then dynamically allocating them through a fine-grained scheduling strategy. To further reduce the error in expert loading, we introduce a multi-layer expert prediction mechanism and a resource-adaptive expert pre-loading algorithm to enable more robust expert allocation. This design allows our model to achieve more efficient expert utilization and improved resilience to prediction errors. We conduct extensive experiments to demonstrate the superiority of FIRM-MoE across diverse memory constraints. The results show that FIRM-MoE achieves up to 1.5× speedup and 2.8× memory savings in decoding, compared to state-of-the-art MoE offloading strategies.

CP-Rec: Contextual Prompting for Conversational Recommender Systems

Keyu Chen
Shiliang Sun

The conversational recommender system (CRS) aims to provide high-quality recommendations through interactive dialogues. However, previous CRS models have no effective mechanisms for task planning and topic elaboration, and thus they hardly maintain coherence in multi-task recommendation dialogues. Inspired by recent advances in prompt-based learning, we propose a novel contextual prompting framework for dialogue management, which optimizes prompts based on context, topics, and user profiles. Specifically, we develop a topic controller to sequentially plan the subtasks, and a prompt search module to construct context-aware prompts. We further adopt external knowledge to enrich user profiles and make knowledge-aware recommendations. Incorporating these techniques, we propose a conversational recommender system with contextual prompting, namely CP-Rec. Experimental results demonstrate that it achieves state-of-the-art recommendation accuracy and generates more coherent and informative conversations.
