This research addresses a critical vulnerability in diffusion large language models (dLLMs) by introducing Independent Token Sampling (ITS) to more accurately detect sensitive training data leakage. The proposed method overcomes the structural estimation errors caused by token dependencies in existing masking techniques, offering a query-efficient solution that significantly improves detection performance across multiple datasets. By leveraging attention-derived proxies for conditional mutual information, this work advances the safety and privacy guarantees of next-generation generative architectures.
Weak Ties, Strong Signals: Efficient Training Data Detection in Diffusion LLMs via Independent Token Sampling
arXiv:2609.22145v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) offer a compelling alternative to autoregressive models, yet they may expose sensitive training data during denoising. Detecting such usage is challenging because dLLMs lack the efficient one-pass probability decomposition of causal architectures. Existing methods rely on random masking to obtain tractable token-wise detection signals under limited query budgets, but fail to control dependencies among masked tokens. We demonstrate that this token-wise approximation introduces a non-negative structural estimation error, which is theoretically characterized by the cumulative conditional mutual information (CMI) among masked tokens and can obscure subtle memorization signals. This insight suggests that reliable detection requires masked token sets with weak internal dependency. To avoid the prohibitive cost of directly estimating CMI over token combinations, we propose \textit{Independent Token Sampling} (ITS), a query-efficient framework that uses an attention-derived pairwise dependency proxy to approximate the CMI-aware selection criterion. ITS further incorporates a diversity-promoting strategy to improve token coverage across sampling rounds, yielding aggregated token-wise signals that are less affected by dependency-induced approximation error. Experiments on multiple datasets show that ITS consistently outperforms state-of-the-art baselines across different models and datasets, achieving an AUC improvement of 0.18 on the ArXiv dataset while maintaining strong performance under limited query budgets.
