Implement sampling as a translation strategy for the client. Enable with: --translation_strategy sampling
Adjust softmax temperature during sampling: --sampling_temperature TEMP . Default: 1.0.

Does not improve BLEU score, but it might be useful for generating diverse backtranslations with temperatures between 0.2 and 0.4.
