Diffusion-GR2: Diffusion Generative Reasoning Re-ranker
Generative reasoning re-rankers achieve strong recommendation accuracy by emitting a chain-of-thought before re-ordering a candidate list, but they are slow at inference: an autoregressive (AR) decoder spends one sequential forward pass per reasoning token, and the reasoning trace far exceeds the ranking it produces. To reduce this cost, block-diffusion language models decode many positions in parallel over a few denoising steps and are substantially faster, yet naively converting an AR re-ranker into one opens two accuracy gaps: (1) a structural gap: answer positions are denoised in parallel
Self-Guided Test-Time Training for Long-Context LLMs
Long-context processing has become increasingly important for large language models (LLMs), but simply extending the context window does not guarantee effective utilization of long inputs. As input length grows, accuracy often degrades, indicating that models still struggle to identify and use the evidence most relevant to a question. A promising way to improve long-context utilization is test-time training (TTT), which treats the test context as a training example for instance-specific parameter adaptation. However, applying TTT to the entire long context is prohibitively expensive, while ada
