Hi all,
I have a question concerning the "Tutorial for Using Factored Models", 
section on "Train a morphological analysis and generation model".

The following translation factors and generation factors are trained for 
the given example corpus:

     --translation-factors 1-1+3-2 \
     --generation-factors 1-2+1,2-0 \
     --decoding-steps t0,g0,t1,g1

What is the advantage of using the first generation factor 1-2 compared 
to the configuration below?

     --translation-factors 1-1+3-2 \
     --generation-factors 1,2-0 \
     --decoding-steps t0,t1,g1

I understand the 1-2 generation factor maps lemmas to POS+morph 
information, but the same information is also generated by the 3-2 
translation factor. Apart from that this generation factor introduces 
huge combinatorial blow-up, since every lemma can be mapped to basically 
every possible morphological information seen for this lemma.
