DLM-SWAI: Steering Diffusion Language Models Before They Unmask

Steering language model generation toward desired textual properties is essential for practical deployment, and inference-time methods are particularly appealing because they enable controllable generation without retraining. Recent work has also highlighted diffusion language models as an emerging generation paradigm with distinct decoding properties. However, most existing steering approaches either rely on auxiliary models or are designed for autoregressive next-token decoding, making them difficult to apply to diffusion language models DLMs, which generate text through iterative denoising
