Hi all, I am facing the same error that Cyrine Nasri mentioned in this thread.
I will try and give more information that what has already been mentioned. 1. I was using a single-threaded version of moses until earlier and was having no problem with the experiments using EMS. 2. I recently shifted to a multi-threaded version, and tried the same experiment again with EMS. This time, the tuning process crashes after a single iteration with exactly the same error as mentioned below. 3. I have used 10 threads for decoding in the tuning process, and am using a server with 32Gb ram for running the experiments. (Might not be related, but just thought I should mention!) I am not sure if Cyrine's problem was with the multi-threaded version as well, but could some one point out as to what might be wrong in this picture ? - Prasanth On Wed, Jul 27, 2011 at 5:59 PM, Cyrine NASRI <[email protected]>wrote: > Hello, > I 'm trying to launch the mert using this command: > > ./mert-moses-new.pl /users/parole/cnasri/moses_work/corpus/source2TOK > /users/parole/cnasri/moses_work/corpus/ref2TOK > /users/parole/cnasri/moses_work/moses/moses-cmd/src/moses > /users/parole/cnasri/moses_work/moses-scripts/scripts-20110727-1543/training/moses.ini > --working-dir /users/parole/cnasri/moses_work/tuning/ --mertdir > /users/parole/cnasri/moses_work/moses/mert > > But there is only one iteration, after it stops and it show: > > Peeking at the beginning of nbestlist to get order of scores: > run1.best100.out > The decoder returns the scores in this order: d lm w tm tm tm > Executing: gzip -f run1.best100.out > Scoring the nbestlist. > Executing: /users/parole/cnasri/moses_work/moses/mert/extractor --scconfig > case:true --scfile run1.scores.dat --ffile run1.features.dat -r > /users/parole/cnasri/moses_work/corpus/ref2TOK -n run1.best100.out.gz > > extract.out 2> extract.err > Executing: \cp -f init.opt run1.init.opt > Executing: /users/parole/cnasri/moses_work/moses/mert/mert -d 6 --scconfig > case:true -n 20 --ffile run1.features.dat --scfile run1.scores.dat --ifile > run1.init.opt 2> mert.log > Exit code: 3 > Failed to run mert at ./mert-moses-new.pl line 752. > and in the mert log : > > Seeding random numbers with system clock > :Too few minimum weights. > error could not initialize start point with > > I have not idea how i resolve this problem. > Any idea please? > > Thank you > > -- > * > * > > > _______________________________________________ > Moses-support mailing list > [email protected] > http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/moses-support > > -- "Theories have four stages of acceptance. i) this is worthless nonsense; ii) this is an interesting, but perverse, point of view, iii) this is true, but quite unimportant; iv) I always said so." --- J.B.S.
