What Gets Unmasked First? Trajectory Analysis of Diffusion Models for Graph-to-Text Generation

Researchers present the first systematic study of masked diffusion language models (MDLMs) for graph-to-text generation, revealing that these models naturally prioritize entities before relational words and structural tokens. The study identifies a failure mode in supervised fine-tuning that prematurely anchors structural tokens, and proposes lambda-scaled structural decoding to recover performance gains while introducing Graph-LLaDA for improved generalization across datasets.

Normalization Equivariance for Arbitrary Backbones, with Application to Image Denoising

Researchers present a parameter-free wrapper method (WNE) that enforces Normalization Equivariance—robustness to brightness and contrast shifts—around any neural network backbone without architectural constraints. The approach characterizes NE as a normalize-process-denormalize factorization, enabling compatibility with modern components like transformers and attention mechanisms while avoiding the 1.6x computational overhead of existing methods.

Is One Layer Enough? Understanding Inference Dynamics in Tabular Foundation Models

Researchers conducted the first large-scale mechanistic study of tabular foundation models, revealing significant redundancy across inference layers. They demonstrated that a single-layer looped model can match performance of state-of-the-art models while using only 20% of the parameters, challenging assumptions about depth requirements in transformer architectures.
