DARE reuses up to 87% of attention activations in diffusion LLMs through KV caching and output reuse, delivering 1.2x per-layer latency gains with average performance drops of 1.2-2.0%.
NI Sampling accelerates discrete diffusion language models up to 14.3 times by training a neural indicator to select which tokens to sample at each step using a trajectory-preserving objective.
DiffTSP applies discrete diffusion to knowledge graph triple set prediction, recovering all missing triples simultaneously via edge-masking noise reversal and a structure-aware transformer, achieving SOTA on three datasets.
BARD bridges autoregressive and diffusion VLMs with progressive block merging plus stage-wise intra-diffusion distillation, delivering 3x speedup and new SOTA on open dVLMs using under 4.4M data points.
LangFlow is the first continuous diffusion language model to rival discrete diffusion on perplexity and generative perplexity while exceeding autoregressive baselines on several zero-shot tasks.
Orthrus unifies autoregressive and diffusion views on a shared KV cache to deliver lossless parallel token generation with up to 7.8x speedup and O(1) memory overhead.
BitLM replaces per-token softmax with bitwise continuous diffusion inside causal blocks to generate multiple tokens in parallel while preserving autoregressive structure.
FlashAR accelerates autoregressive image generation up to 22.9x by post-training a pre-trained raster-scan model with a complementary vertical head and dynamic fusion for two-way next-token prediction.
TextLDM applies DiT-style latent diffusion with flow matching to language modeling via a REPA-aligned VAE, outperforming prior diffusion LMs and matching GPT-2 when trained from scratch on OpenWebText2.
ReflectDrive-2 combines masked discrete diffusion with RL-aligned self-editing to generate and refine driving trajectories, reaching 91.0 PDMS on NAVSIM camera-only and 94.8 in best-of-6.
Stability-Weighted Decoding improves diffusion LLM accuracy by modulating token scores with temporal stability from KL divergence between prediction steps.
DLMs exhibit lower n-gram entropy, higher semantic coherence, and higher semantic diversity than ARMs, primarily due to bidirectional context and remasking decoding strategies.
Generative perplexity and entropy are shown to be the two additive components of KL divergence to a reference distribution, motivating generative frontiers as a principled evaluation method for diffusion language models.
LLaDA2.0 scales discrete diffusion language models to 100B parameters via systematic conversion from autoregressive models using a 3-phase WSD training scheme and releases open-source 16B and 100B MoE variants.
Dream 7B is a 7B diffusion LLM that refines sequences in parallel via denoising and outperforms prior diffusion models on general, mathematical, and coding benchmarks with added flexibility in generation order and quality-speed tradeoffs.
DMax enables faster parallel decoding in diffusion language models by using on-policy training to recover from errors and soft embedding interpolations for iterative revision, boosting tokens per forward pass roughly 2-3x on benchmarks while preserving accuracy.
