🔬 What is CAP Training?

Confidence-Aware Parallel (CAP) Training is a novel training technique designed to enhance parallel decoding efficiency in diffusion language models.

Technical Overview

The training objective combines two complementary losses:

L(θ) = L_SFT(θ) + λL_conf(θ)

Where:

• L_SFT: Supervised fine-tuning loss ensuring prediction correctness
• L_conf: Confidence loss that minimizes entropy only for correctly predicted tokens
• λ: Hyperparameter balancing the two objectives

Why CAP Works

1. Sharpens Correct Predictions: While standard training ensures correctness, it provides diminishing incentive to increase confidence on already-correct tokens. CAP explicitly optimizes for high-confidence predictions.
2. Enables Aggressive Parallelism: Higher confidence allows the model to decode multiple tokens simultaneously with greater reliability, reducing the total number of forward passes needed.
3. Selective Optimization: By focusing only on correct predictions, CAP avoids penalizing the model's exploration of uncertain outputs.

💻 Usage

🤗 Hugging Face Transformers

import torch
import torch.nn.functional as F
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM
from transformers import AutoTokenizer

model_path = "/path/to/LLaDA2.0-flash-CAP"
device = "cuda:0"
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_path, trust_remote_code=True, device_map=device
)
model = model.to(torch.bfloat16)
model.eval()
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_path, trust_remote_code=True)

prompt = "Why does Camus think that Sisyphus is happy?"
input_ids = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    [{"role": "user", "content": prompt}],
    add_generation_prompt=True,
    tokenize=True,
    return_tensors="pt",
)
generated_tokens = model.generate(
    inputs=input_ids,
    eos_early_stop=True,
    gen_length=512,
    block_length=32,
    steps=32,
    temperature=0.0,
)
generated_answer = tokenizer.decode(
    generated_tokens[0],
    skip_special_tokens=True,
)
print(generated_answer)

Best Practices

To achieve optimal performance, we recommend the following settings:

1. Sampling Parameters:
   We suggest using Temperature=0.0, block_length=32, and steps=32. Using a higher temperature value may occasionally result in language mixing and a slight decrease in model performance.
2. Adequate Output Length:
   We recommend using an output length of 32768 tokens for most queries.
