This paper describes the PROMT submissions for the WMT23 Shared General Translation Task. This year we participated in two directions of the Shared Translation Task: English to Russian and Russian to English. Our models are trained with the MarianNMT toolkit using the transformer-big configuration. We use BPE for text encoding, both models are unconstrained. We achieve competitive results according to automatic metrics in both directions.

The PROMT systems are trained with the MarianNMT toolkit. All systems use the transformer-big configuration. We use BPE for text encoding, the vocabulary sizes vary from 24k to 32k for different language pairs. All systems are unconstrained. We use all data provided by the WMT organizers, all publicly available data and some private data. We participate in four directions: English-Russian, English-German and German-English, Ukrainian-English.

This paper describes the PROMT submissions for the WMT21 Terminology Translation Task. We participate in two directions: English to French and English to Russian. Our final submissions are MarianNMT-based neural systems. We present two technologies for terminology translation: a modification of the Dinu et al. (2019) soft-constrained approach and our own approach called PROMT Smart Neural Dictionary (SmartND). We achieve good results in both directions.

This paper describes the PROMT submissions for the WMT 2020 Shared News Translation Task. This year we participated in four language pairs and six directions: English-Russian, Russian-English, English-German, German-English, Polish-English and Czech-English. All our submissions are MarianNMT-based neural systems. We use more data compared to last year and update our back-translations with better models from the previous year. We show competitive results in terms of BLEU in most directions.

This paper describes the PROMT submissions for the WMT 2019 Shared News Translation Task. This year we participated in two language pairs and in three directions: English-Russian, English-German and German-English. All our submissions are Marian-based neural systems. We use significantly more data compared to the last year. We also present our improved data filtering pipeline.

This paper describes the PROMT submissions for the WMT 2018 Shared News Translation Task. This year we participated only in the English-Russian language pair. We built two primary neural networks-based systems: 1) a pure Marian-based neural system and 2) a hybrid system which incorporates OpenNMT-based neural post-editing component into our RBMT engine. We also submitted pure rule-based translation (RBMT) for contrast. We show competitive results with both primary submissions which significantly outperform the RBMT baseline.
