arXiv:2607. 16339v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion-based Large Language Models(DLLMs) enable parallel generation via Semi-Autoregressive (SAR) decoding in text generation.
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.
Flash-dLLM is a training‑free inference acceleration framework that improves the speed and memory efficiency of Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs). It tackles GPU memory I/O bottlenecks by introducing an I/O‑aware fused KV‑cache kernel and then employs a draft‑and‑verify decoding strategy that uses the dLLM itself as both drafter and verifier. Experiments on mathematical reasoning and code‑generation tasks show Flash‑dLLM outperforms existing acceleration methods, achieving up to 11.0× speedups over the Elastic‑Cache baseline.

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.
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.
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:2601. 22954v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) have emerged as a promising alternative to purely autoregressive language models because they can decode multiple tokens in parallel.
arXiv:2607. 14107v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The inference efficiency of diffusion large language models (dLLMs) is constrained by two challenges: bidirectional attention precludes efficient KV-cache reuse, while increasing decoding parallelism with static confidence thresholds can compromise generation quality.
Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) have emerged as a competitive alternative to autoregressive language models, offering the potential for substantially faster inference through parallel decoding. Existing parallel decoding schedulers typically commit positions only after they meet a per-position criterion, overlooking how early commitments may benefit subsequent decoding.
Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) exhibit strong parallel decoding capabilities by denoising multiple tokens in a single generation step. However, this parallelism comes with substantial computational...
