תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.02665v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite the success of discrete diffusion language models (dLMs) for fast parallel decoding, their non-smooth, high-dimensional space hinders trajectory steering for reasoning and inference acceleration. To overcome this, we present Sigma, the first large-scale (3B/8B) continuous dLM built on steerable, low-dimensional ODE/SDE latent trajectories. Trained blockwise via likelihood optimization, Sigma jointly denoises Gaussian-corrupted token embeddings while learning an optimal embedding geometry. To accelerate training, Sigma leverages pre-trained weights from autoregressive (AR) models for warm-starting. During inference, we identify classifier-free guidance and score temperature as essential for high-fidelity reasoning and coding. Across
