英文摘要

The autoregressive (AR) models, such as attention-based encoder-decoder models and RNN-Transducer, have achieved great success in speech recognition. They predict the output sequence conditioned on the previous tokens and acoustic encoded states, which is inefficient on GPUs. The non-autoregressive (NAR) models can get rid of the temporal dependency between the output tokens and predict the entire output tokens in one inference step. However, the NAR model still faces two major problems. Firstly, there is still a great gap in performance between the NAR models and the advanced AR models. Secondly, it's difficult for most of the NAR models to train and converge. We propose a hybrid autoregressive and non-autoregressive transformer (HANAT) model, which integrates AR and NAR models deeply by sharing parameters. We assume that the AR model will assist the NAR model to learn some linguistic dependencies and accelerate the convergence. Furthermore, the two-stage hybrid inference is applied to improve the model performance. All the experiments are conducted on a mandarin dataset ASIEHLL-1 and a english dataset librispeech-960 h. The results show that the HANAT can achieve a competitive performancewith the AR model and  outperform many complicated NAR models. Besides, the RTF is only 1/5 of the AR model.
