arXiv:2606. 16847v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) offer a promising avenue for parallel generation but face a trade-off between decoding speed and quality.
The paper introduces ELF-REG, a scaling of continuous diffusion language models (dLMs) for reasoning tasks. By aligning representations and using a frozen autoregressive teacher to supervise intermediate denoiser features, ELF-REG achieves higher pass@1 rates on GSM8K, MATH-500, HumanEval, and MBPP compared to prior dLMs. The method also enables strong low‑NFE performance through early‑stop decoding of intermediate predictions.
The paper introduces Dependency-Aware Revocable Decoding (DARD), a training‑free framework for diffusion large language models that separates tokens into masked, candidate, and unmasked states. DARD verifies candidate tokens using a selective context that excludes less reliable tokens and adaptively regulates their influence on subsequent decoding. Experiments on 12 textual and multimodal benchmarks across three open‑source dLLMs show that DARD improves the speed‑quality Pareto frontier, achieving a 2.71× speedup and a 4.35‑point CIDEr gain over Saber on Flickr30K.

arXiv:2606. 01024v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Discrete Masked diffusion language models generate text by iterative parallel decoding, but few-step decoding suffers from a tradeoff between length and quality: with a fixed step budget, standard methods can generate a short, high-quality output, or they can produce long but repetitive text.
arXiv:2606. 02544v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) have recently emerged as a promising alternative to autoregressive (AR) LLMs, offering faster inference through parallel or blockwise decoding.

arXiv:2606. 00819v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved strong performance across diverse natural language tasks, yet their outputs often suffer from hallucinations -- content that is misaligned with factual information.
Embedded Language Flows (ELF) rely primarily on full non-causal attention for iterative denoising, repeatedly incurring quadratic sequence-mixing cost at each sampling step. Gated Delta Networks (GDNs) provide an efficient recurrent alternative, but their standard causal formulation cannot directly capture the bidirectional context required by ELF.
