arXiv:2607. 15893v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While the internal mechanisms of autoregressive (AR) transformers have been studied extensively, much less is known about diffusion language models (DLMs), an emerging alternative that generates text by iterative denoising.

arXiv:2511. 15927v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion language models (DLMs) have emerged as a promising alternative to autoregressive (AR) generation, yet their reliance on Transformer backbones limits inference efficiency due to quadratic attention or KV-cache overhead.

arXiv:2608. 11249v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study the problem of lossless text compression, motivated by the rapid growth in the collection and storage of digital textual data - including plain text, source code, and structured formats such as XML - and by recent advances in neural language model-based compression.

arXiv:2604. 01206v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present RELISH (REgression with a Latent Iterative State Head), a novel, lightweight architecture designed for text regression with large language models.
