We describe the Sogou neural machine translation systems for the WMT 2017 Chinese↔English news translation tasks.Our systems are based on a multilayer encoder-decoder architecture with attention mechanism.The best translation is obtained with ensemble and reranking techniques.We also propose an approach to improve the named entity translation problem.Our Chi-nese→English system achieved the highest cased BLEU among all 20 submitted systems, and our English→Chinese system ranked the third out of 16 submitted systems. 1
