Reversible Diffusion Decoding for Diffusion Language Models
Diffusion language models enable parallel token generation through block-wise decoding, but their irreversible commitments can lead to stagnation, where the reverse diffusion process fails to make further progress under a suboptimal context.We propose Reversible Diffusion Decoding (RDD), a decoding framework that introduces reversibility into block-wise diffusion generation. RDD detects stagnation as a state-dependent failure of the reverse process and enables efficient backtracking to earlier blocks without recomputation via cached model states. To avoid repeated failure trajectories, RDD applies confidence-guided re-masking to selectively reinitialize uncertain tokens while preserving reliable context.This reversible formulation allows decoding to recover from early commitment errors while maintaining the parallel efficiency of diffusion-based generation. Experiments show that RDD improves generation robustness and quality over baselines with minimal computational overhead.
