arXiv:2606. 02544v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) have recently emerged as a promising alternative to autoregressive (AR) LLMs, offering faster inference through parallel or blockwise decoding.
arXiv:2606. 04446v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive large language model inference by drafting multiple tokens and verifying them in a single target-model forward pass.
arXiv:2607. 22634v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) have emerged as a promising alternative to autoregressive (AR) LLMs, generating tokens in parallel.
Speculative decoding speeds up LLM inference by using a draft model to generate tokens, with an acceptance-rejection scheme that ensures that the output matches the target distribution. Adapting this to continuous diffusions is difficult because speculative sampling requires drawing from a residual distribution.
arXiv:2608. 08721v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speculative decoding accelerates large language model inference by drafting multiple tokens for parallel verification, with efficiency critically determined by the speculative length selected at each decoding round.
arXiv:2606. 00487v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Using a diffusion model for parallel drafting is a promising approach for speculative decoding.
