I found this message below, which mentions the topic, but leaves my question unanswered.
The train-model.perl script has an option called "max-phrase-length". Documentation shows its default is 7. The processPhraseTable binarizer has an option called -nscores that refers to "number of scores". The moses binary's fourth numeric option in moses.ini's [ttable-file] section is also "number of scores". Documentation and the message below define a default of 5. Are the "max-phrase-length" and "number of scores" values the same? If not the same, is there a connection and if so, what is it? If there's no connection, What criteria should one choose when setting "number of scores" and what the consequence of changing it from the default of 5?
