This paper describes the NTT-Tohoku-TokyoTech-RIKEN (NT5) team’s submission system for the WMT’22 general translation task.This year, we focused on the English-to-Japanese and Japanese-to-English translation tracks.Our submission system consists of an ensemble of Transformer models with several extensions.We also applied data augmentation and selection techniques to obtain potentially effective training data for training individual Transformer models in the pre-training and fine-tuning scheme.Additionally, we report our trial of incorporating a reranking module and the reevaluated results of several techniques that have been recently developed and published.
