arXiv:2603. 22216v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The slow, sequential nature of autoregressive (AR) language models has driven the adoption of parallel decoding methods.
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.
Autoregressive (AR) language modeling is the dominant paradigm for text generation, yet its sequential token-by-token decoding makes inference memory-bound and inefficient. Existing acceleration approaches, such as speculative decoding and diffusion language models, can yield speedups under certain conditions but do not directly address high-load batch serving--the scenario most critical for industrial-scale deployment.

arXiv:2606. 08048v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion language models (DLMs) offer substantial speed advantages through parallel decoding, but the lack of token dependencies limits generation quality compared to autoregressive (AR) models.

arXiv:2607. 20467v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While parallel decoding is central to the efficiency of Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs), current strategies are often hindered by overly conservative confidence thresholds.
arXiv:2606. 26120v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) offer a promising alternative to autoregressive models, excelling in text generation tasks due to their bidirectional attention mechanisms.
arXiv:2608. 13925v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) accelerate language generation by predicting multiple masks in a single forward pass.
arXiv:2601. 07568v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) offer capabilities beyond those of autoregressive (AR) LLMs, such as parallel decoding and random-order generation.
Ripple-Pivot Search (RPS) is a training‑free decoding method for Diffusion Large Language Models that identifies mid‑entropy pivot positions to reduce uncertainty across remaining masked tokens. By proactively committing these pivots and evaluating token assignments via lookahead, RPS enables more tokens to be unmasked in parallel, speeding up decoding. Experiments on three dLLMs and four reasoning/code‑generation benchmarks show 4–10× wall‑clock speedup over standard decoding, up to 18× with KV caching, while maintaining or improving generation quality.
arXiv:2604. 08558v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent decoder-only autoregressive text-to-speech (AR-TTS) models produce high-fidelity speech, but their memory and compute costs scale quadratically with sequence length due to full self-attention.
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.
