Tensor-Train Joint Modeling for Few-Step Discrete Diffusion

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.

Consistent Diffusion Language Models

arXiv:2605. 00161v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion language models (DLMs) are an attractive alternative to autoregressive models because they promise sublinear-time, parallel generation, yet practical gains remain elusive as high-quality samples still demand hundreds of refinement steps.

Insertion Based Sequence Generation with Learnable Order Dynamics

arXiv:2602. 18695v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Existing insertion-based masked diffusion models that generate sequences by interleaving token insertion with unmasking use fixed schedules that are not dependent on the data.

MMD Guidance: Training-Free Distribution Adaptation for Diffusion Models via Maximum Mean Discrepancy Guidance

arXiv:2601. 08379v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Pre-trained diffusion models have emerged as powerful generative priors for both unconditional and conditional sample generation, yet their outputs often deviate from the characteristics of user-specific target data.
