arXiv:2607. 28166v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion language models expose a provisional prediction at every denoising step, and on many tasks the candidate answer inside it stabilizes before the step schedule is exhausted.
arXiv:2606. 14620v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Open diffusion language models are marketed as parallel, non-autoregressive decoders, yet the order in which a shipped checkpoint actually commits its tokens is almost never measured.
arXiv:2608. 05687v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Masked diffusion language models (dLLMs) can commit tokens in any order -- a freedom marketed as their core advantage over autoregressive decoding.
arXiv:2608. 11235v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion language models (DLMs) update many tokens in parallel, yet practical decoders often use a fixed denoising horizon.
arXiv:2607. 17652v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Block-wise diffusion large language models (dLLMs) decode sequentially at the block level, enabling effective KV-cache reuse across blocks but making inter-block decoding strictly serial.
Block-wise diffusion large language models (dLLMs) decode sequentially at the block level, enabling effective KV-cache reuse across blocks but making inter-block decoding strictly serial. Prior work has attempted to unlock inter-block parallelism through post-training methods, but achieves only modest speedups and often degrades accuracy.
arXiv:2606. 11552v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) achieve remarkable performance across a wide range of tasks, but their autoregressive decoding process incurs substantial inference costs due to inherently sequential token generation.
arXiv:2605. 29233v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion language models (dLLMs) generate text by iteratively denoising multiple token positions in parallel, offering an attractive alternative to strictly autoregressive decoding.
Diffusion language models (dLLMs) generate text by iteratively denoising a masked response and can commit multiple output positions per model invocation. Their bidirectional attention prevents exact autoregressive-style KV caching, since committing one position shifts the KV activations of all others.
arXiv:2607. 10203v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Adaptive-compute world models -- early-exit or mixture-of-depths predictors that spend variable depth per step -- assume depth buys better predictions and can be routed adaptively.
arXiv:2607. 04206v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion language models (dLLMs) generate text by iteratively denoising a masked response and can commit multiple output positions per model invocation.
arXiv:2606. 08446v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite being powerful, reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) induces extremely long COT, making it computationally expensive.
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.
