Nemotron-Labs-Diffusion-8B

Nemotron-Labs-Diffusion is a tri-mode language model that supports both AR decoding and diffusion-based parallel decoding by simply switching the attention pattern of the same model during inference. The synergy between these two modes enables a third mode, called self-speculation: the same model performs diffusion-based parallel drafting and AR verification with shared KV cache, achieving high acceptance lengths and decoding efficiency. The seamless mode switching by simply changing attention patterns enables high efficiency at different concurrency levels in varying deployment scenarios with one single model. An optional LoRA adatper can be applied to the diffusion drafter in the linear self-speculation mode to further increase the acceptance length: NVIDIA believes Trustworthy AI is a shared responsibility and we have established policies and practices to enable development for a wide array of AI applications.
