DreamReasoner-8B: Block-Size Curriculum Learning for Diffusion Reasoning Models

Zirui Wu, Lin Zheng, Jiacheng Ye +5

Block diffusion language models accelerate decoding through parallel block-wise denoising, yet whether they can be reliably scaled for long chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning remains…

Prefilling-dLLM: Predictive Prefilling for Long-Context Inference in Diffusion Language Models

Jing Xiong, Qi Han, Shansan Gong +5

Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) re-encode the entire prefix at every denoising step, causing recomputation that scales quadratically with context length and becomes prohibi…

DreamOn: Diffusion Language Models For Code Infilling Beyond Fixed-size Canvas

Zirui Wu, Lin Zheng, Zhihui Xie +8

Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) present a compelling alternative to autoregressive models, offering flexible, any-order infilling without specialized prompting design. However, th…

OVD: On-policy Verbal Distillation

Jing Xiong, Hui Shen, Shansan Gong +7

Knowledge distillation offers a promising path to transfer reasoning capabilities from large teacher models to efficient student models; however, existing token-level on-policy dis…

Dream-VL & Dream-VLA: Open Vision-Language and Vision-Language-Action Models with Diffusion Language Model Backbone

Jiacheng Ye, Shansan Gong, Jiahui Gao +6

While autoregressive Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have achieved remarkable success, their sequential generation often limits their efficacy in complex visual planning and dy…

Continuously Augmented Discrete Diffusion model for Categorical Generative Modeling

Huangjie Zheng, Shansan Gong, Ruixiang Zhang +5

Standard discrete diffusion models treat all unobserved states identically by mapping them to an absorbing [MASK] token. This creates an 'information void' where semantic informati…
