arXiv:2603. 00045v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion language models theoretically allow for efficient parallel generation but are practically hindered by the ``factorization barrier'': the assumption that simultaneously predicted tokens are independent.
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.
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.
arXiv:2511. 15927v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion language models (DLMs) have emerged as a promising alternative to autoregressive (AR) generation, yet their reliance on Transformer backbones limits inference efficiency due to quadratic attention or KV-cache overhead.
arXiv:2607. 03788v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Discrete diffusion promises orders-of-magnitude faster generation than autoregressive (AR) models for sequential discrete data, yet its full potential of few-step generation has remained out of reach due to a fundamental structural limitation.
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: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.
arXiv:2607. 01775v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Discrete diffusion models have steadily improved in quality relative to autoregressive (AR) models.
arXiv:2607. 11758v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Discrete diffusion models offer a powerful framework for solving complex reasoning tasks, particularly through compositional generation, which combines multiple pre-trained experts to generalize beyond their individual training data.
arXiv:2601. 12247v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) present a promising non-sequential paradigm for text generation, distinct from standard autoregressive (AR) approaches.
arXiv:2507. 08390v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Discrete diffusion models have recently emerged as strong alternatives to autoregressive language models, matching their performance through large-scale training.
Speculative decoding, in which a lightweight draft model first generates a draft sequence that is then verified in parallel by the target model, has become a prevalent paradigm for accelerating large language model inference. Recent work such as DFlash further boosts drafting efficiency by leveraging diffusion drafters, whose parallel denoising mechanism enables draft generation in a single forward pass.
arXiv:2602. 12262v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion large language models (DLLMs) have emerged as powerful generative models with the promise of fast text generation through parallel decoding.
