Definitions and Applications included Google’s Gemini and Mixtral 8x7B **[AI in Plain English](https://daily.dev/sources/aiplainenglish)** · 6 min read · 2 upvotes · 0 comments ## Summary The mixture of expert architecture is a model that combines the strengths of multiple 'expert' models to make more accurate and robust predictions. It is implemented through a set of models trained on subsets of data, which are then combined using a gating network. This approach allows for more flexibility and improved performance, but it also presents challenges in terms of computational intensity and determining the optimal combination of experts. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
