[Paper] Turning the TIDE: Cross-Architecture Distillation for Diffusion Large Language Models

Impact: 8/10
Swipe left/right

Summary

Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) offer benefits like parallel decoding but currently require billions of parameters for competitive performance. Existing distillation methods reduce inference steps within a single architecture, failing to address knowledge transfer between models with different architectures. TIDE introduces the first framework for cross-architecture dLLM distillation, enabling efficient knowledge transfer even when teacher and student models vary in architecture, attention mechanisms, and tokenizers.
