What is ncm?
Next-Concept Modeling (NCM) is a two-stage framework for parallel text generation. A multiscale residual VQ tokenizer represents a sequence as a hierarchy of discrete codes, and a transformer predicts that hierarchy from coarse to fine. Positions within a level are generated in parallel, so generation requires one forward evaluation per level.
