DCGC: Draft-Conditioned Global Correction for Complex Reasoning with Masked Diffusion Models

DCGC is a Masked Diffusion Model framework that performs global correction of flawed reasoning traces in Large Language Models. It uses an imperfect solution draft from an upstream solver as auxiliary context and combines task‑specific supervised fine‑tuning with a Dynamic Dual‑CFG inference mechanism that separates problem‑only and joint problem‑draft branches. Experiments on math, code, and knowledge reasoning benchmarks show that DCGC outperforms standard sampling and simpler CFG variants, and it can improve full test‑set accuracy even when ground‑truth failure labels are unavailable.
