Ripple-Pivot Search (RPS) is a training‑free decoding method for Diffusion Large Language Models that identifies mid‑entropy pivot positions to reduce uncertainty across remaining masked tokens. By proactively committing these pivots and evaluating token assignments via lookahead, RPS enables more tokens to be unmasked in parallel, speeding up decoding. Experiments on three dLLMs and four reasoning/code‑generation benchmarks show 4–10× wall‑clock speedup over standard decoding, up to 18× with KV caching, while maintaining or improving generation quality.

The paper introduces Dependency-Aware Revocable Decoding (DARD), a training‑free framework for diffusion large language models that separates tokens into masked, candidate, and unmasked states. DARD verifies candidate tokens using a selective context that excludes less reliable tokens and adaptively regulates their influence on subsequent decoding. Experiments on 12 textual and multimodal benchmarks across three open‑source dLLMs show that DARD improves the speed‑quality Pareto frontier, achieving a 2.71× speedup and a 4.35‑point CIDEr gain over Saber on Flickr30K.
