Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating an output sequence from an input sequence. One of the methods includes receiving the input sequence; processing the input sequence using a latent prediction model configured to autoregressively predict a sequence of discrete latent variables that is shorter than the output sequence and that encodes the output sequence, wherein each discrete latent variable in the sequence is selected from a discrete set of latent variables; and processing the input sequence and the predicted sequence of discrete latent variables using a parallel decoder model configured to generate the outputs in the output sequence in parallel from the input sequence and the predicted sequence of discrete latent variables.
