Rethinking the Generation Order of Block Diffusion Language Models

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

Diffusion language models enable flexible arbitrary-order generation, but existing sampling methods are mostly designed for early masked diffusion models (MDMs). In this work, we study sampling for recent block diffusion language models (BDLMs).
