Abstract:Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) introduce unique quantization challenges due to their iterative denoising process. In this work, we reveal that quantization sensitivity is both taskand time-dependent, with different downstream tasks exhibiting distinct precision requirements across denoising steps. We further show that these patterns can be predicted without groundtruth labels or task-specific evaluation metrics. Building on these findings, we introduce T 2Quant, a task and time-aware mixedprecision quantization framework that uses a label-free sensitivity signal to optimally allocate activation precision across denoising steps under a fixed bit-width budget. Extensive experiments across three DLMs and six benchmarks demonstrate that T 2Quant consistently improves the average accuracy of existing quantization methods, achieving gains of up to 6.7 percentage points under the same budget.
