[Moses-support] word lattice + multiple translation tables optimization problem

Dear all,

I am trying to optimize a system with multiple translation tables and a word lattice input. The first iteration of the optimization is done ok. However, after that, I get the following error:

“The decoder produced also some ‘I’ scores, but we do not know the ranges for them, no way to optimize them”

If I use only one translation table, I get exactly the same error, so it may be a problem related with word lattice and/or binary translation table.

thanks for your concern,
Marta

[Moses-support] moses_chart and recaser/phrase-table ?

Hi,

is the moses/moses_chart executable from the mt3_chart branch supposed to be usable as a recaser (that is using a phrase-table) ? When I do so then I get a SEGV (see stacktrace at the very end).

Working on the same files with moses from svn/trunk works fine.

I read somewhere that irstlm is not thread-safe and in the debug output I see that a new thread has been started. Is that the problem? I thought I’d be safe because I did *not* configure moses with –enable-threads nor with boost.

many thanks
Christof

[Moses-support] Moses on the iPhone

Hello,

My name is Andrew Haddad. I am a Graduate Research Assistant at Purdue University. I have been given the task of getting moses working on the iphone. The moses package, which we have successfully installed and have running in simulation on the iphone will of course not work due to some limitations put for by Apple.

I am going to be forced to cross compile the moses static library, used in moses-cmd, for the arm and i386 architecture. And then rewrite the functionality of moses-cmd to be used in our application. Do you know of anyone who has attempted something similar, that might be able to explain the process?

[Moses-support] different servers + different time – different result?

Hi all,

I ran some experiments with moses like, half a year ago. And recently I ran them for a second time. The time I got the reuslts, I got confused.
Beacause they’re so different from those I got previously.

The softwares I used was not changed, the same version. The corpus is of course the same. I just copied them. And I used the same script the run the experiments, just changed some directory. It seems I ran the same experiments on two different servers at different time, and got different results.

I checked alignment results, aligned.grow-diag-and-final, and there’re a lot of differences. I also checked moses.ini, and the parameters are greatly different.

So, has anybody ever come into this situation? I’m really confused…

Regards,

Lee Xianhua

[Moses-support] Alignment information from binary phrase table

Hello all,

I am trying to get the alignment information from a binary phrase table that was generated from a plain phrase table containing alignment information.

I load the phrase table through the following piece of code:
——————
numScoreComponent=5;
numInputScores=0;
tableLimit=0;
weightWP=0;

input.push_back(0);
output.push_back(0);

weight.push_back(0); weight.push_back(0);
weight.push_back(0); weight.push_back(0); weight.push_back(0);

PhraseDictionaryTreeAdaptor *pd=new
PhraseDictionaryTreeAdaptor(numScoreComponent, numInputScores);

pd->DisableCache();

if (!pd->Load(input, output, “/path/to/phrase/table”, weight, tableLimit, lmList, weightWP)) {
delete pd;
cerr< <"Error: Cannot load Moses binary phrase table, path='"< exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
------------------

and I get the following error message:

reading bin ttable
size of OFF_T 8
ERROR:You are asking binary phrase table without word alignments but the
file do not exist. Please check if you had generated the correct phrase
table without word alignment
(phrase-table.binphr.srctree,phrase-table.binphr.tgtdata)

ERROR:bin ttable was read in a wrong way

When the binary phrase table does not contain any alignment information
it works without problems.

How should a binary phrase table with alignment information be loaded?
Should I change some parameters? Which? Any help will be very valuable.

Thank you very much in advance, and happy new year.

[Moses-support] Reading binary phrase table from the disk

Hello,

As I understand, when given a binary phrase table, moses does not load it into memory, but rather seeks for phrases in file directly from disk. Could you please tell me, what are the functions in C++ that are used for this purpose.

Thank you,

Michael.
