Hi again. The way you tuned seems ok. The final moses.ini file that you found in mydata/model/mert-work
should look like the one you have in mydata/model BUT with the tuned values for the model's weights. Therefore the one in mert-work is the moses.ini file you should use to perform your translations. More information about the whole tuning process can be seen in http://www.statmt.org/moses/?n=FactoredTraining.Tuning The best way you can realize if you did the tuning right is comparing the results using the different moses.ini files (i.e. using the old and new weight values). I don't know about the warning you are getting, sorry. Good luck! -- Carlos A. Henríquez Q. [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Mensaje original ---- De: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Para: [email protected] Enviado: sábado, 22 de noviembre, 2008 16:51:24 Asunto: [Moses-support] some questions about tuning Hi everybody, I had previously asked a question on this list if my MOSES setup seemed reasonable to anybody. Carlos Henriquez replied, suggesting that I tried tuning, for which thanks! Now I am trying this tuning process out and have would be much obliged if somebody could check if I've got the procedure right. I have split my original training data into training' and dev. I ran trained moses on training' which resulted in a directory mydata/model mydata/model/moses.ini mydata/model/some_other_important_files I then ran the tuning script as cd mydata/model ${MOSES_SCRIPTS}/training/mert-moses.pl\ ../dev-source-language\ ../dev-target-language\ /usr/local/bin/moses This gave me mydata/model/mert-work mydata/model/mert-work/moses.ini mydata/model/merk-work/some_other_important_files I intend to run moses on the test data as follows cd mydata moses -f model/mert-work/moses.ini < test-source-language Does that sound right? Also, I get this warning > Use of uninitialized value within @WORD_FACTOR in concatenation (.) or > string at ${MOSES_SCRIPTS}/training/filter-model-given-input.pl line > 132, <INPUT> line 1. Have I done something wrong? I'm using an unfactored model, for what it's worth. Interestingly, if I run the script a second time, I do not get this complaint.
