Thanks Hieu. Sorry, your name is at the top of the revision I had.
So, I open the question to anyone who can shed some light. I understand
the GIZA++ alignment types aren't relevant to the recaser. However, EMS
calls these "alignment-symmetrization-method" and adds "berleley" as a
new value "name", like so: 

alignment-symmetrization-method =
grow-diag-final-and
vs.
alignment-symmetrization-method = berkeley 

I
want to know if the simple one-for-one alignment method used in
train-recaser.perl has its own name, or if one of the existing names
would apply.

i didn't write that code but from what i know, it
doesn't matter. The alignment types are to do with how would create the
final alignment from the GIZA++ forward & reverse alignment. Since the
reccaser is given the final alignment, those aren't relevant

Hieu, 

The train-model.perl
script and the manual lists these 7 alignment types: intersect, union,
grow, grow-final, grow-diag, grow-diag-final, grow-diag-final-and,
srctotgt, tgttosrc. 

The train-recaser.perl script creates its own
alignment file between the cased and lowercased data it creates, and
initiates train-model.perl at step 4 with this alignment file. 

Does
the recaser's alignment file fit into one of the seven types, or is it
its own type? If it's its own type, does that type have a common name?


Thanks,
Tom
