Chenhan D. YuandClaude Opus 4.6 3131195241 add: DFlash block diffusion speculative decoding (#1211)
DFlash (Block Diffusion for Flash Speculative Decoding) predicts an
entire block of tokens in a single forward pass using masked parallel
prediction with KV injection from the target model's hidden states.

Key features:
- Feature fusion (multi-layer hidden states -> FC + RMSNorm)
- KV injection (fused features as K/V in every draft layer with QK-norm)
- Random anchor sampling with bidirectional intra-block attention
- Logit distillation with exponential loss decay (gamma weighting)
- Multi-node DDP training with checkpoint resume
- Export to z-lab compatible HF format
- Online validation (context-dependent ground truth)

Training recipe:
modelopt_recipes/general/speculative_decoding/dflash.yaml
Results: examples/speculative_decoding/doc/dflash_results.md

### ModelOpt Eval (online validation, osl=512)

| Dataset | z-lab | ModelOpt (306K) | Diff |
|---------|-------|-----------------|------|
| gsm8k | 4.10 | **5.19** | **+1.09** |
| MT-Bench | 3.58 | **4.36** | **+0.78** |

### z-lab Official Eval (dflash.benchmark, osl=512)

| Dataset | z-lab | ModelOpt (306K) | Diff |
|---------|-------|-----------------|------|
| gsm8k | **5.00** | 4.08 | -0.92 |
| MT-Bench | **3.28** | 2.99 | -0.29 |

> z-lab model trained with block_size=16. ModelOpt trained with
block_size=8.

## Evaluation Method Impact (gsm8k)

| Eval Method | z-lab checkpoint | ModelOpt (306K) |
|-------------|-----------------|-----------------|
| Fixed GT (ModelOpt eval) | 2.95 | 4.23 |
| Online GT (ModelOpt eval) | 4.10 | **5.19** |
| z-lab official eval | **5.00** | 4.08 |
