arXiv:2508. 10875v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) are rapidly emerging as a powerful and promising alternative to the dominant autoregressive (AR) paradigm.
arXiv:2601. 22954v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) have emerged as a promising alternative to purely autoregressive language models because they can decode multiple tokens in parallel.
arXiv:2607. 12829v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) offer a theoretical advantage in parallel generation over standard autoregressive models.
The paper introduces PILL, a new infilling technique for diffusion language models that eliminates the need for a preset initial length and reduces inference overhead. PILL uses probing-based length-free decoding, cutting down on extra forward passes and speeding up generation. Experiments across five diffusion models and eight benchmarks show PILL outperforms the strongest baseline with higher pass rates and BLEU-2 scores while running 1.82× faster.
Diffusion large language models (DLLMs) enable non-autoregressive generation by iteratively denoising corrupted token sequences with bidirectional context. Despite their ability to update multiple positions in parallel, inference remains costly due to the many denoising steps required for high-quality generation.
The paper introduces a training‑free structured suffix modeling technique to accelerate Diffusion Language Models (DLMs). It partitions the suffix into local, middle, and tail regions, retaining varying numbers of tokens per region and incorporating previous decoding results into current token representations. Experiments on three DLMs show significant speedups—up to 72.81× in long‑sequence inference—while often improving performance, and the method is compatible with existing acceleration strategies.
arXiv:2603. 07475v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autoregressive (AR) language models build representations incrementally via left-to-right prediction, while diffusion language models (dLLMs) are trained through full-sequence denoising.
arXiv:2606. 01774v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autoregressive (AR) large language models (LLMs) have achieved broad practical success, but sequential decoding remains a key bottleneck for low-latency deployment.
arXiv:2609. 04010v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) owe much of their success to next-token prediction (NTP), but their autoregressive (AR) structure requires slow, sequential token generation.
arXiv:2602. 11133v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion language models generate text through iterative refinement, a process that is often computationally inefficient because many tokens reach stability long before the final denoising step.

arXiv:2606. 29228v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite the capability of parallel decoding, diffusion large language models (dLLMs) require many denoising steps to maintain generation quality, motivating recent research on efficient decoding strategies.
