NAR lipreading is a challenging task that has many difficulties: 1) the discrepancy of sequence lengths between source and target makes it difficult to estimate the length of the output sequence; 2) the conditionally independent behavior of NAR generation lacks the correlation across time which leads to a poor approximation of target distribution; 3) the feature representation ability of encoder can be weak due to lack of effective alignment mechanism; and 4) the removal of AR language model exacerbates the inherent ambiguity problem of lipreading.
