Ripple-Pivot Search: Active Parallel Decoding for Diffusion Large Language Models

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) have emerged as a competitive alternative to autoregressive language models, offering the potential for substantially faster inference through parallel decoding. Existing parallel decoding schedulers typically commit positions only after they meet a per-position criterion, overlooking how early commitments may benefit subsequent decoding.
