Human writers often bookend their writing with ending sentences that relate back to the beginning sentences in order to compose a satisfying narrative that "closes the loop." Motivated by this observation, we propose RENarGen, a…

As the basis of generative AI, an autoregressive model requires the generation of a new token depending on all the previously generated tokens, which brings high quality but also restricts the model to generate tokens one by one, forming a…
