Moses Support Digest:nbest list option in decoder

[Moses-support] -nbest-list option in decoder

In the tuning script I passed the following parameter to mert-moses.plscript.
–decoder-flags ‘-n-best-list output_file 200′

But the script keeps throwing me the error :

Peeking at the beginning of nbestlist to get order of scores: run1.best100.out
Failed to get order of scores from nbestlist ‘run1.best100.out’

Looking at the code and the output, it seems the decoder runs successfully, though.

I do not get this. Can someone help?

Hi,

you should not specify an n-best-list option to the MERT script, since it uses its own file naming convention for the n-best list files it produces. If you want to change the size of the n-best lists to 200 use the option “-nbest 200″.

Yeah, I figured that out. Thank you.
