No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
We introduce a post-training method for diffusion language models (DLMs) that minimizes Maximum Mean Discrepancy (MMD) between generated and reference distributions in the feature space of a frozen pretrained DLM. To estimate MMD, we retain contextual features at individual token positions, obtaining multiple observations per sequence from a single extractor pass. We optimize this objective using policy gradients for discrete models and direct differentiation through generated latents for continuous models. In both cases, computing the loss directly from these features enables efficient post-training without full sampling trajectories or jointly trained auxiliary models. Experiments show lower generative perplexity at comparable entropy on OpenWebText and better accuracy-computation trade-offs on GSM8K. On 16B DMax-LLaDA2.0 models with hybrid masked-uniform diffusion, we increase decoding parallelism with similar or higher accuracy on math and code benchmarks.
