Dear all,
I am running MIRA and have three questions about MIRA:

1. The output of MIRA are different files containing tuned weights after
each epoch. I assume I should use the weights from the last epoch. Is this
correct?

2. There is no --continue option for 'mira', so when the process got
stopped due to some reason if I run mira with the a new moses.ini
containing weights from the last epoch of the killed mira, do the output
weights of the new mira are exactly as they were expected from the killed
process? For example, suppose that my killed mira produced weights for the
3rd epoch; I put the weights in a new moses.ini file and run a new mira
with this moses.ini as input configuration file, are the weights from the
first epoch of the new mira are as the weights from the 4th epoch of the
killed mira?

3. I am a bit confused about the structure of the file containing the
weights and not sure how to put the weights into the moses.ini format. In
the case i am running now, there are 6 LexcialReodering weights and one
Distortion weight in the weights file but in the moses.ini i think these
weights were put together under the* # distortion (reordering)
weight [weight-d]* section.

I don't know which weight in this section should be the distortion and the
rest should be Lexical Reordering. Could someone please explain this to
 me.
