BD3-LMs is a research implementation of Block Discrete Denoising Diffusion Language Models that interpolate between autoregressive and diffusion language models. It provides training and evaluation code, noise schedules, samplers supporting arbitrary-length generation, and baseline implementations of AR, SEDD, MDLM, and SSD-LM.

Use cases

  • train a block diffusion language model
  • generate arbitrary-length text with diffusion models
  • compare autoregressive vs diffusion language model baselines
  • experiment with discrete denoising diffusion for text
  • reproduce ICLR 2025 block diffusion results
  • tune block size to trade off generation quality and speed
  • evaluate likelihoods of diffusion language models

When to choose

  • you need flexible-length generation with KV caching and parallel sampling
  • you want state-of-the-art diffusion language modeling likelihoods
  • you are researching hybrid autoregressive-diffusion models
  • you need baseline implementations of SEDD, MDLM, or AR models

When to avoid

  • you just need a production-ready LLM for inference
  • you want a simple autoregressive model without diffusion
  • you need a plug-and-play chatbot or API service
  • you lack GPU resources for training language models
