Introduction

This repository contains additional reference translations for the WMT'14 En-De and En-Fr test sets (newstest2014) as described in the paper: Analyzing Uncertainty in Neural Machine Translation.

In particular we provide 10,000 additional reference translations written by professional translators:

• 10 additional reference translations for each of 500 sentences of the WMT'14 En-De test set (5,000 total)
• 10 additional reference translations for each of 500 sentences of the WMT'14 En-Fr test set (5,000 total)

Format

Each line in the data file contains a sentence and an identifier, where identifiers represent:

• S-123 English source for sentence #123 of newstest2014
• T-123: Original reference translation (German or French)
• R1-123 through R10-123: Additional reference translations

Sentence numbers correspond to the index of the sentence in the full test set (see below).
