arXiv:2605.30876v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) have recently emerged as a promising alternative to autoregressive models, offering competitive performance while naturally supporting parallel decoding. However, as dLLMs are increasingly integrated with Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures to scale model capacity, a fundamental mismatch arises between block parallel decoding and token-level expert selection. Specifically, each dLLM forward pass processes multiple tokens with bidirectional dependencies, whereas conventional MoE layers route each token in
The paper addresses a critical scalability challenge in Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) as they are increasingly integrated with Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures to compete with autoregressive models.
This development is crucial for advancing the efficiency and capability of next-generation AI models, potentially accelerating the development of more powerful and resource-efficient LLMs.
The proposed 'dMoE' architecture, with its learnable block experts, offers a solution to the fundamental mismatch between block parallel decoding in dLLMs and token-level expert selection in conventional MoE layers, making dLLMs more competitive at scale.
