ParallelBench: Understanding the Trade-offs of Parallel Decoding in Diffusion LLMs
Wonjun Kang, Kevin Galim, Seunghyuk Oh +8
While most autoregressive LLMs are constrained to one-by-one decoding, diffusion LLMs (dLLMs) have attracted growing interest for their potential to dramatically accelerate inferen…
EfficientRollout: System-Aware Self-Speculative Decoding for RL Rollouts
Minseo Kim, Minjae Lee, Seunghyuk Oh +7
Reinforcement learning (RL) has become a representative post-training paradigm for LLMs, enabling strong reasoning and agentic capabilities. However, rollout generation remains a d…
Residual Context Diffusion Language Models
Yuezhou Hu, Harman Singh, Monishwaran Maheswaran +10
Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) have emerged as a promising alternative to purely autoregressive language models because they can decode multiple tokens in parallel. Howeve…
Speculative Interaction Agents: Building Real-Time Agents with Asynchronous I/O and Speculative Tool Calling
Coleman Hooper, Minwoo Kang, Suhong Moon +7
There is a growing demand for agentic AI technologies for a range of downstream applications like customer service and personal assistants. For applications where the agent needs t…
LoSA: Locality Aware Sparse Attention for Block-Wise Diffusion Language Models
Haocheng Xi, Harman Singh, Yuezhou Hu +9
Block-wise diffusion language models (DLMs) generate multiple tokens in any order, offering a promising alternative to the autoregressive decoding pipeline. However, they still rem…
Squeeze Evolve: Unified Multi-Model Orchestration for Verifier-Free Evolution
Monishwaran Maheswaran, Leon Lakhani, Zhongzhu Zhou +16
We show that verifier-free evolution is bottlenecked by both diversity and efficiency: without external correction, repeated evolution accelerates collapse toward narrow modes, whi…
