Hi Nicola When I tried with irstlm 5.80.03, the version mentioned on the Moses baseline page (http://www.statmt.org/moses/?n=Moses.Baseline), it did not like the "yes". Has there been a change in irstlm? I can check again.
There has been some history with this argument. You can see in the wiki history of the Moses baseline page that the "yes" was added (because some users reported problems) then removed (because other users reported problems). Clarification of what works with what version of irstlm would be very useful, cheers - Barry On 05/03/14 08:51, Nicola Bertoldi wrote: > Hi Janez, > > Seth syggested you the right fix > > I just checked the IRSTLM documentation > http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/irstlm/index.php?title=Estimating_gigantic_models > and the correct notation is reported there. > > Could you please tell me from where do you get the "wrong" information > So that I correct it. > > > Nicola > (on behalf of IRSTLM development team) > > > > On Mar 5, 2014, at 1:36 AM, Seth Jarrett wrote: > > First four commands were executed successfuly.
