Diffusal v1.0.0 — Initial public research release
Initial public research release
This release archives the Diffusal research program, including pre-registered experiment configurations, evaluation scripts, raw result summaries, and the current paper draft.
Current evidence
- INT4 PTQ: matched MDLM diffusion language models show lower relative degradation than their autoregressive controls in the reported likelihood and generative-anchor evaluations.
- Native ternary QAT: the three-seed 7M-scale replication supports the pre-registered no-extra-dLLM-tax criterion; it does not establish superior diffusion robustness.
Scope and limitations
Results are bounded by the evaluated models, hardware, and recipes. They are not a claim about 7B+ models, a 25B ternary dLLM, or calibrated PTQ. See ARXIV-PAPER.md and the experiment result files for methods, raw values, and caveats.
