TACG: Trajectory-Aware Commit Gating for Diffusion Language Model Decoding
arXiv:2607.03236v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion language models (DLLMs) generate text by iteratively denoising masked positions, exposing a trajectory of predictive distributions rather than a single instantaneous belief. Most existing decoders ignore this trajectory and commit tokens from the current snapshot alone, conflating confidence with commitment readiness: a transient top-1 peak under incomplete context can be locked in, while candidates with consistent cross-step support are ...
