Understanding Evaluation Illusion in Diffusion Large Language Models
Hengxiang Zhang, Jiaxi Ren, Renchunzi Xie, Hongxin Wei
Despite the capability of parallel decoding, diffusion large language models (dLLMs) require many denoising steps to maintain generation quality, motivating recent research on efficient decoding strategies. However, existing studies have reported inconsistent evaluation results e…
