Replace dense self-attention by a sparse attention graph whose neighborhoods satisfy the paper's size-dependent expansion condition. This preserves a logarithmically controlled route for every token subset to communicate with the rest of the sequence, reducing quadratic attention cost without allowing disconnected or poorly mixed token groups.
Train an admission or MoE routing gate not only to reduce its immediate workload, but also to preserve the ordering between a controlled trajectory and a baseline trajectory under the same request stream. Penalize counterfactual events in which the controlled system, after initially rejecting work, later exceeds the baseline workload because its changed state causes a large job to be admitted.
Convert a sequential modular network into parallel execution layers by placing mutually commuting operators in the same layer. The resulting circuit preserves all noncommuting precedence constraints while exposing safe concurrency and fusion opportunities for inference or training.
