The paper introduces PACE-dLLM, an acceleration method for diffusion language models (dLLMs) that uses the model’s own per‑step confidence to estimate a ‘confidence cliff’ and determine the optimal look‑ahead horizon for block decoding. By fitting this cliff in closed form at each step, PACE-dLLM sets the horizon to its saturation point and applies an independent confidence threshold for token commitment, thereby avoiding the trade‑offs inherent in fixed‑size block decoding. Experiments on reasoning and code benchmarks show that PACE-dLLM achieves the best average accuracy on open‑source dLLM backbones while delivering significant wall‑clock speedups—up to 5.23× on LLaDA and 3.06× on Dream—improving the quality‑throughput Pareto frontier.
arXiv:2609. 04010v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) owe much of their success to next-token prediction (NTP), but their autoregressive (AR) structure requires slow, sequential token generation.

The paper introduces PILL, a new infilling technique for diffusion language models that eliminates the need for a preset initial length and reduces inference overhead. PILL uses probing-based length-free decoding, cutting down on extra forward passes and speeding up generation. Experiments across five diffusion models and eight benchmarks show PILL outperforms the strongest baseline with higher pass rates and BLEU-2 scores while running 1.82× faster.
