Deterministic Differentiable Structured Pruning for Large Language Models
Weiyu Huang, Pengle Zhang, Xiaolu Zhang +3
Structured pruning reduces LLM inference cost by removing low-importance architectural components. This can be viewed as learning a multiplicative gate for each component under an…
LLaDA2.1: Speeding Up Text Diffusion via Token Editing
Tiwei Bie, Maosong Cao, Xiang Cao +47
While LLaDA2.0 showcased the scaling potential of 100B-level block-diffusion models and their inherent parallelization, the delicate equilibrium between decoding speed and generati…
Per-parameter Task Arithmetic for Unlearning in Large Language Models
Chengyi Cai, Zesheng Ye, Jiangchao Yao +5
In large language model (LLM) unlearning, private information is required to be removed. Task arithmetic unlearns by subtracting a specific task vector (TV)--defined as the paramet…
LLaDA2.0: Scaling Up Diffusion Language Models to 100B
Tiwei Bie, Maosong Cao, Kun Chen +28
This paper presents LLaDA2.0 -- a tuple of discrete diffusion large language models (dLLM) scaling up to 100B total parameters through systematic conversion from auto-regressive (A…
LLaDA 1.5: Variance-Reduced Preference Optimization for Large Language Diffusion Models
Fengqi Zhu, Rongzhen Wang, Shen Nie +8
While Masked Diffusion Models (MDMs), such as LLaDA, present a promising paradigm for language modeling, there has been relatively little effort in aligning these models with human…
