New Gumbel Straight Flow model distills autoregressive language models

Researchers have introduced Gumbel Straight Flow (GSF), a novel language model that distills autoregressive models into a single-step flow map. GSF utilizes the noise-data coupling of a pretrained autoregressive model to create non-intersecting paths between noise and sequence representations. This approach has demonstrated superior performance on various pretraining and downstream tasks compared to existing few-step language generation methods. AI

IMPACT Introduces a new technique for more efficient language generation by distilling autoregressive models into a single-step flow map.

    Gumbel Straight Flow: Distilling Autoregressive Models into One-step Flow Maps

    arXiv:2610.00497v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present Gumbel Straight Flow (GSF), a continuous flow map language model that leverages the noise-data coupling of a pretrained autoregressive language (AR) model. We theoretically demonstrate that the coupling between Gumbel n…
