In this talk, I will describe a generalized framework under which various sequence generation
approaches could be formulated. From this generalized framework, I will derive some of the
recently proposed approaches to sequence generation beyond conventional left-to-right
monotonic generation. They include parallel decoding via iterative refinement, latent-variable
non-autoregressive sequence models, masked language model generation and non-monotonic
sequential generation.
