Description: BANG is a new pretraining model to Bridge the gap between Autoregressive (AR) and Non-autoregressive (NAR) Generation. AR and NAR generation can be uniformly regarded as to what extent previous tokens can be attended, and BANG bridges AR and NAR generation by designing a novel model structure for large-scale pretraining. The pretrained BANG model can simultaneously support AR, NAR and semi-NAR generation to meet different requirements.
