Learning to Re-Draft: A Variational Stackelberg Game for Discrete Diffusion

Dmitrii Moor, Federico Tomasi, Paul N. Bennett +2

Discrete diffusion models offer the ability to re-draft, revisiting and correcting earlier tokens throughout generation. This capability depends on the forward corruption process t…
