arXiv:2606. 24140v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Discrete flow matching (DFM) provides a principled framework for generative modeling on discrete state spaces via continuous-time Markov chain dynamics.
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.
The paper introduces Clock Diffusion, a framework for semi‑autoregressive continuous diffusion language models that incorporates position‑dependent noise schedules, efficient training, and sampling algorithms. It presents two generation modes—block and sliding window—and defines ClockDLMs, a family of Gaussian models that achieve state‑of‑the‑art diffusion likelihoods on OpenWebText and outperform continuous baselines on GSM8K while matching or exceeding discrete diffusion models. The authors also propose Cache Grab, a set of efficient samplers that adapt accelerated inference techniques from discrete diffusion to further improve model quality and efficiency.
arXiv:2607. 26285v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Two central challenges in diffusion-based sampling are the theoretical one of understanding their remarkable effectiveness even in high-dimensional settings, and the practical one of designing algorithms with certified performance guarantees.
GeoSPRINT is a training‑free framework that constructs non‑uniform sampling schedules for diffusion model inference by detecting geometrically redundant steps in denoising trajectories. It uses a hyperplanarity test in latent space, implemented via QR factorization, to allocate more steps to high‑curvature regions, and introduces the trajectory projection score α_traj as a model‑free diagnostic for flow quality. Across CIFAR‑10, LSUN Church, and Stable Diffusion v1.5, GeoSPRINT consistently outperforms uniform DDIM schedules at matched NFE budgets, improving FID scores by up to 1.93 points.
