The AFRL-MITLL WMT16 News-Translation Task Systems.

This report summarizes the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) machine translation (MT) systems submitted to the news-translation task as part of the 2020 Conference on Machine Translation (WMT20) evaluation campaign. This year we largely repurpose strategies from previous years’ efforts with larger datasets and also train models with precomputed word alignments under various settings in an effort to improve translation quality.
