This paper is adjacent to HFEPX scope and is best used for background context, not as a primary protocol reference.
Use this as background context only. Do not make protocol decisions from this page alone.
Use this page for context, then validate protocol choices against stronger HFEPX references before implementation decisions.
Best use
Background context only
Use if you need
A secondary eval reference to pair with stronger protocol papers.
What to verify
Validate the evaluation procedure and quality controls in the full paper before operational use.
Main weakness
The available metadata is too thin to trust this as a primary source.
Treat as adjacent context, not a core eval-method reference.

Diffusion language models (DLMs) offer a promising path toward low-latency generation through parallel decoding, but their practical efficiency depends heavily on the decoding trajectory. In practice, this advantage often fails to fully materialize because standard training does not provide explicit supervision over token reveal order, creating a train-inference mismatch that leads to suboptimal decoding behavior. We propose Trajectory-Ranked Instruction Masked Supervision (TRIMS), a simple trajectory-guided supervised fine-tuning framework that injects trajectory supervision into standard Masked Diffusion Language Model (MDLM) training with minimal overhead. Instead of relying on costly DLM-based distillation, TRIMS uses lightweight signals from an autoregressive teacher to guide a trajectory-aware masking strategy, encouraging the model to learn more effective decoding orders. Experiments on LLaDA and Dream across math and coding benchmarks show that TRIMS significantly improves the accuracy-parallelism trade-off over both standard MDLM training and train-free acceleration baselines, while achieving competitive performance with prior distillation-based approaches at substantially lower training cost. Further analysis shows that TRIMS leads to better decoding trajectories, validating the effectiveness of trajectory-guided supervision for DLMs.
These are the protocol signals we could actually recover from the available paper metadata. Use them to decide whether this paper is worth deeper reading.
