Align diffusion models to hierarchical fine-grained criteria rather than binary preferences. Decompose expert knowledge into attribute hierarchies and apply Complex Preference Optimization to simultaneously maximize positive attributes while minimizing negative ones.

testing
Uses flow maps as look-ahead operators to enable principled reward-guided diffusion by predicting trajectory endpoints at any denoising step. Deploy when applying rewards or preferences to diffusion trajectories with meaningful gradients throughout generation.
testing
Train language models where each expert learns independently on closed datasets, enabling flexible inference with selective data inclusion or exclusion. 41% performance improvement while allowing users to opt out of specific data sources without retraining.
data-ai
Understand how token generation flexibility in diffusion LMs paradoxically constrains reasoning, as models exploit ordering flexibility to avoid uncertain tokens, and apply simplified approaches that preserve parallel decoding benefits. Use when optimizing diffusion-based language models for reasoning tasks.
devops
Enable LLM agents to improve continuously during deployment by constructing structured experience libraries through self-reflection on successes and failures—achieving 23% improvement on reasoning without gradient-based parameter updates or external training.
