Researchers introduce Parallel Decoding Distillation (PDD), a trajectory-based distillation method that accelerates diffusion and flow matching models by predicting multiple denoising steps per network evaluation, achieving state-of-the-art performance at 4-8 NFE. Unlike prior methods relying on variational score distillation and adversarial losses, PDD avoids mode collapse and improves generated video diversity. The method is validated on LTX-2.3 Text-to-Video/Audio, Wan 14B Text-to-Video, and Qwen-Image Text-to-Image models.
