    abstract = "In this paper, we describe our systems submitted to the very low resource supervised translation task at WMT20. We participate in both translation directions for Upper Sorbian-German language pair. Our primary submission is a subword-level Transformer-based neural machine translation model trained on original training bitext. We also conduct several experiments with backtranslation using limited monolingual data in our post-submission work and include our results for the same. In one such experiment, we observe jumps of up to 2.6 BLEU points over the primary system by pretraining on a synthetic, backtranslated corpus followed by fine-tuning on the original parallel training data."
