LOCKR: A Hidden-State Trajectory-Guided Planner for Detecting and Repairing Stable-but-Wrong Lock-In in Diffusion Language Models
arXiv:2609.27220v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion language models generate text through iterative denoising, exposing intermediate trajectories before final answers are produced. We identify a recurring reasoning failure, stable-but-wrong lock-in, where an answer stabilizes early around an…
