Domain adaptation is an important challenge for neural machine translation. However, the
traditional fine-tuning solution requires multiple extra training and yields a high cost. In this
paper, we propose a non-tuning paradigm, resolving domain adaptation with a prompt-
based method. Specifically, we construct a bilingual phrase-level database and retrieve
relevant pairs from it as a prompt for the input sentences. By utilizing Retrieved Phrase-level

Domain adaptation is an important challenge for neural machine translation. However, the traditional fine-tuning solution requires multiple extra training and yields a high cost. In this paper, we propose a non-tuning paradigm, resolving domain adaptation with a prompt-based method. Specifically, we construct a bilingual phrase-level database and retrieve relevant pairs from it as a prompt for the input sentences. By utilizing Retrieved Phrase-level Prompts (RePP), we effectively boost the translation quality. Experiments show that our method improves domain-specific machine translation for 6.2 BLEU scores and improves translation constraints for 11.5% accuracy without additional training.
