DynHD is a method for detecting hallucinations in diffusion large language models (D‑LLMs) by focusing on token‑level uncertainty and its evolution during the denoising process. It introduces a semantic‑aware evidence construction module that filters out non‑informative structural tokens and highlights uncertainty in informative tokens, and a reference evidence generator that models the expected trajectory of uncertainty, enabling a deviation‑based detector to identify hallucinations. Experiments show DynHD outperforms existing baselines while being more efficient across various benchmarks and backbone models.
Uniform discrete diffusion models (UDMs) typically rely on explicit time conditioning, yet this study finds that such conditioning is often unnecessary in practice. While the population‑optimal UDM predictor generally depends on time—controlling how much the model should trust the observed context—the dependence becomes negligible in finite‑data language settings. Empirical results show that trained language UDMs exhibit limited time sensitivity across most of the diffusion trajectory, and time‑agnostic predictors can match or outperform time‑conditioned models on various datasets and training objectives.

Diffusion large language models (DLLMs) have recently emerged as a promising alternative to autoregressive LLMs by generating text through iterative masked denoising with bidirectional context. However, their large model sizes and iterative denoising process introduce substantial memory and computational overhead, motivating post-training quantization for efficient deployment.
