However, the property also hinders its parallelizability thus RNNs are slow to execute on modern hardware optimized for parallel execution. As a result, a number of more parallelizable sequence models were proposed such as ConvS2S (Gehring et al., 2017) and the Transformer (Vaswani et al., 2017) . These models avoid the dependencies between dif-ferent positions in each layer thus can be trained much faster than RNN based models.

A recent work (Gu et al., 2017) attempts to accelerate generation by introducing a non-autoregressive model. Based on the Transformer (Vaswani et al., 2017) , they made lots of modifications. The most significant modification is that they avoid feeding the previously generated target words to the decoder, but instead feeding the source words, to predict the next target word. They also introduced a set of latent variables to model the fertilities of source words to tackle the multimodality problem in translation. Lee et al. (2018) proposed another non-autoregressive sequence model based on iterative refinement. The model can be viewed as both a latent variable model and a conditional denoising autoencoder. They also proposed a learning algorithm that is hybrid of lower-bound maximization and reconstruction error minimization.", |

We denote it as strict causal mask. However, in the SAT decoder, strict causal mask is not a good choice. As described in the previous subsection, in long-distance prediction, the model predicts y K+1 by feeding with y 1 . With strict causal mask, the model can only access to y 1 when predict y K+1 , which is not reasonable since y 1 . . . y K are already produced. It is better to allow the model to access to y 1 . . . y K rather than only y 1 when predict y K+1 .

Com-bining the original Transformer with group-level chain rule, long-distance prediction and relaxed causal mask, the SAT can produce multiple consecutive words at each time step, thus speedup decoding significantly. We conducted experiments on English-German and Chinese-English translation. Compared with previously proposed nonautoregressive models (Gu et al., 2017; Lee et al., 2018; Kaiser et al., 2018) , the SAT achieves a better balance between translation quality and decoding speed. On WMT'14 English-German translation, the SAT achieves 5.58\u00d7 speedup while maintaining 88% translation quality, significantly bet-ter than previous methods. When producing two words at each time step, the SAT is almost lossless (only 1% degeneration in BLEU score).", |
