Abstract
The University of Cambridge submission to the WMT18 news translation task
focuses on the combination of diverse models of translation. We compare
recurrent, convolutional, and self-attention-based neural models on
German-English, English-German, and Chinese-English. Our final system combines
all neural models together with a phrase-based SMT system in an MBR-based
scheme. We report small but consistent gains on top of strong Transformer
ensembles.

The current recommendation prototype on the Apollo Repository will be turned off on 03 February 2023. Although the pilot has been fruitful for both parties, the service provider IKVA is focusing on horizon scanning products and so the recommender service can no longer be supported. We recognise the importance of recommender services in supporting research discovery and are evaluating offerings from other service providers. If you would like to offer feedback on this decision please contact us on: support@repository.cam.ac.uk
