This paper describes a system for the SemEval 2023 Task 9: Multilingual Tweet Intimacy Analysis. This system consists of a pretrained multilingual masked language model as a text encoder and a neural network as a regression model. Data augmentation based on neural machine translation models is adopted to improve model performance under the low-resource scenario. This system is further improved through the ensemble of multiple models with the best performance in each language. This system ranks 4th in languages unseen in the training data and 16th in languages seen in the training data. The code and data can be found in this link: https://github.com/Cloudy0219/Multilingual.
