Gacha Decoding is an inference-time method that elicits diverse language model generations by treating diversity as an instruction-following problem. It combines a model’s instruction-following ability with randomness from an external RNG to identify and realize distinct response modes, outperforming existing diversity approaches across open-ended domains. The method scales with model capability, achieving higher diversity at equal quality and discovering novel modes with far fewer samples.
arXiv:2608. 07460v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While post-training improves the capabilities of large language models (LLMs), it generally lowers their output diversity and creativity, negatively impacting tasks that explicitly require creativity (e.

The paper investigates how long, richly detailed prompts cause modern text-to-image models to lose diversity, even when many visual aspects are unspecified. It introduces PromptMoG, a training‑free method that samples prompt embeddings from a Mixture‑of‑Gaussians distribution to restore diversity while preserving semantic fidelity. The authors also present LPD‑Bench, a benchmark for evaluating fidelity and diversity under long, semantically dense prompts, and demonstrate PromptMoG’s effectiveness on four large diffusion models.
arXiv:2604. 24927v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generating diverse responses is crucial for test-time scaling of large language models (LLMs), yet standard stochastic sampling mostly yields surface-level lexical variation, limiting semantic exploration.
The paper introduces Variance‑Calibrated Modulation (VCM), a training‑free pre‑decoding technique that reshapes language model probability distributions before truncation. VCM uses two dynamic mechanisms: a Contextual Searchlight via PMI to suppress stopwords and highlight context‑relevant tokens, and an Adaptive Self‑Debiasing that applies scale‑invariant penalization based on real‑time logit standard deviation. Experiments on open‑ended generation, factual QA, and mathematical reasoning show that VCM consistently reduces the likelihood trap, improving diversity, coherence, and reasoning accuracy with minimal computational cost.
