A continuous-space recipe for discrete language generation

A post says a growing body of work uses continuous flow models for discrete problems, including language generation.

Flow Reasoning Models aim to solve reasoning problems by looping predictions

A researcher describes work that turns a flow model into a recurrent model for tasks such as Sudoku. Predictions are fed back as inputs and refined on successive passes.

Block Diffusion restores efficient caching for diffusion language models, a post says

The post describes a block-by-block approach: decode from left to right while generating the tokens within each block in parallel.

Diffusion models can pull noisy samples toward the dataset’s center, a user notes

When a sample is mostly noise, the model’s best guess is close to the mean, the post says—even when no data exists at that center.
