arXiv:2606. 04945v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: 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.
The paper argues that diffusion-based action policies can use a frozen, observation‑free backbone as a reusable trajectory prior, with task adaptation handled entirely by the conditioning pathway. By pretraining a general action head on forward‑kinematics data and then freezing it, the authors show that a single backbone can match or outperform normally trained models on MimicGen and LIBERO. Their experiments reveal that a small 5 M‑parameter MLP backbone can rival large U‑Net and transformer backbones, indicating that action backbones are often over‑parameterized and that image‑style architectures may not be the best fit for low‑dimensional action generation.
