Speculative Correction: Draft-then-Refine Decoding for Diffusion Language Models

Brian K Chen, Chong Wu, Kenji Kawaguchi

Diffusion language models (DLMs) can revise tokens bidirectionally, but standard decoding procedures often adapt them to left-to-right generation by producing text block by block.…
