arXiv:2607. 21372v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Score Entropy Discrete Diffusion (SEDD) parameterizes discrete reverse processes with unconstrained positive score ratios.
Score Entropy Discrete Diffusion (SEDD) parameterizes discrete reverse processes with unconstrained positive score ratios. While positivity guarantees nonnegative reverse jump rates, it does not ensure Bayes realizability: ratios at a noisy state need not be jointly induced by any clean-token posterior under the forward kernel.
arXiv:2607. 24507v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing methods mainly adapt pretrained autoregressive (AR) language models to masked diffusion, whereas we directly adapt them to uniform-noise diffusion, where every token remains editable during sampling.
arXiv:2605. 23434v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Approximate inference over inducing variables is the central computational bottleneck of Deep Gaussian Processes (DGPs).
arXiv:2607. 06114v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion and flow matching models generate high-quality samples, but their ODE samplers often need tens to hundreds of neural function evaluations (NFEs).
arXiv:2607. 05381v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: What does a discrete diffusion model learn: a denoiser, a score ratio, or a bridge plug-in predictor?
arXiv:2608. 01023v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present Caliber, an output-perturbation defense against model extraction that formulates noise selection as a calibration problem: how much the defense degrades the supervision signal used to train a surrogate, and the provable per-input query cost of recovering the clean logits.
arXiv:2607. 04113v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion and flow-matching samplers integrate a learned probability-flow ODE from a large noise scale down to a small terminal floor $\sigma_{\min}$, at which the score is stiff and the flow develops a boundary layer.
arXiv:2608. 14647v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dirty-history rollouts make multi-turn on-policy self-distillation (OPSD) brittle: once a student emits an erroneous intermediate reply, later turns are conditioned on that reply, and uniform distillation can spend loss on tokens that carry little corrective signal.
arXiv:2607. 28864v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Tree-based diffusion models fit flexible conditional predictive distributions for tabular regression without a neural density estimator, but they inherit their design defaults---noising path, parameterization, training distribution, features, sampler---from the neural setting.
arXiv:2607. 13124v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Structured pruning is a hardware-friendly way to compress LLMs, but it is mostly validated on multiple-choice recognition tasks, while the same compressed checkpoints can collapse on the free-form generation that deployment actually requires.
arXiv:2606. 15621v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Per-token counterfactual credit estimation asks which token in a language-model rollout caused the final answer to be right or wrong: cut the transcript at a pivot, substitute an alternative token, replay continuations, and compare outcomes.
arXiv:2608. 07341v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Test data from public benchmarks inevitably leaks into pretraining corpora, inflating evaluation scores once memorized.
