arXiv:2605. 13026v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Masked diffusion models (MDMs) have emerged as a promising alternative to autoregressive models (ARMs) for language modeling.
arXiv:2606. 10829v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Masked diffusion language models can reduce inference steps by revealing multiple tokens per denoising iteration, but this parallelism is fragile: positions that are individually confident may be unsafe to commit together when their predictions are coupled.
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.
Diffusion language models enable flexible arbitrary-order generation, but existing sampling methods are mostly designed for early masked diffusion models (MDMs). In this work, we study sampling for recent block diffusion language models (BDLMs).
arXiv:2606. 09159v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) enable parallel text generation by iteratively denoising a full sequence, offering attractive flexibility compared to auto-regressive (AR) decoding.
arXiv:2510. 26219v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Test-time alignment of large language models (LLMs) attracts attention because fine-tuning of LLMs requires high computational costs.

arXiv:2606. 19475v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized language modeling through autoregressive generation, enabling strong performance across a wide range of tasks.
Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) offer an efficient alternative to autoregressive models through parallel decoding, yet existing post-training methods largely rely on random masking strategies that overlook intrinsic token dependencies. In this work, we present an empirical analysis of attention in dLLMs and show that tokens attending more strongly to unmasked context exhibit greater generation stability and play a critical role in reasoning.
arXiv:2607. 23488v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Text-to-image diffusion models expose many inference-time sampling parameters, including prompts, negative prompts, classifier-free guidance scales, and noise schedules.
arXiv:2509. 21474v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: While diffusion language models (DLMs) have achieved competitive performance in text generation, improving their reasoning ability with reinforcement learning remains an active research area.
