This paper describes the Kingsoft AI Lab's submission to the WMT2019 news translation shared task. We participated in two language directions: English→Chinese and Chinese→English. For both language directions, we trained several variants of Transformer models using the provided parallel data enlarged with a large quantity of back-translated monolingual data. The best translation result was obtained with ensemble and reranking techniques. According to automatic metrics (BLEU) our Chinese→English system reached the second highest score, and our English→Chinese system reached the second highest score for this subtask.
