Researchers have developed Gumbel Distillation, a new technique to improve the generation quality of parallel text models. This method uses the Gumbel-Max trick to create a deterministic link between a latent noise space and the output tokens of a teacher model. Gumbel Distillation is model-agnostic and can be integrated with various parallel decoding architectures. Experiments on LM1B and OpenWebText datasets demonstrated significant improvements, including a 30.0% increase in MAUVE score and a 10.5% reduction in generative perplexity compared to standard MDLM training.
