Introduction

Block Diffusion Language Models (BD-LMs) improve diffusion-based text generation with KV caching and flexible-length generation. MBD-LMs extend them from Single-Block Diffusion (SingleBD) to Multi-Block Diffusion (MultiBD), where a running-set of consecutive blocks is decoded concurrently for inter-block parallelism.

By post-training BD-LMs with Multi-block Teacher Forcing (MultiTF) and utilizing an optimized decoding algorithm based on the Block Buffer mechanism, MBD-LMs translate increased decoding parallelism into significant wall-clock acceleration without sacrificing quality.
