We participated in the WMT 2018 shared news translation task on English↔Chinese language pair.Our systems are based on attentional sequence-to-sequence models with some form of recursion and self-attention.Some data augmentation methods are also introduced to improve the translation performance.The best translation result is obtained with ensemble and reranking techniques.Our Chinese→English system achieved the highest cased BLEU score among all 16 submitted systems, and our English→Chinese system ranked the third out of 18 submitted systems.
