FinMoE: A MoE-based Large Chinese Financial Language Model

AbstractLarge-scale language models have demonstrated remarkable success, achieving strong performance across a variety of general tasks. However, when applied to domain-specific fields, such as finance, these models face challenges due to the need for both specialized knowledge and robust general capabilities. In this paper, we introduce FinMoE, a MOE-based large-scale Chinese financial language model that bridges the gap between general language models and domain-specific requirements. FinMoE employs a dense MoE architecture, where all expert networks are simultaneously activated and dynamically combined to effectively integrate general linguistic understanding with domain-specific financial expertise. Experimental results demonstrate that FinMoE achieves state-of-the-art performance on both general-purpose and financial benchmarks at a comparable scale, validating its ability to balance domain specialization with general knowledge and reasoning.
