Breaking the Factorization Barrier in Diffusion Language Models

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2603. 00045v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion language models theoretically allow for efficient parallel generation but are practically hindered by the ``factorization barrier'': the assumption that simultaneously predicted tokens are independent.

DiffuMamba: High-Throughput Diffusion LMs with Mamba Backbone

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.

Residual Context Diffusion Language Models

arXiv:2601. 22954v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) have emerged as a promising alternative to purely autoregressive language models because they can decode multiple tokens in parallel.
