Reinforcement learning (RL) has become the standard paradigm for enhancing the complex reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs). To achieve sample efficiency, modern RL frameworks rely on importance sampling (IS). However, these algorithms suffer from an exploration…
Extensive context has become the norm as Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in long-horizon tasks. The concern that increasing context length degrades model capabilities, known as context rot, has become a central issue for these applications. In this paper, w…
Block Diffusion Language Models (BD-LMs) improve diffusion-based text generation with KV caching and flexible-length generation. A natural next step is to extend them from Single-Block Diffusion (SingleBD) to Multi-Block Diffusion (MultiBD), where a running-set of consecutive blo…
