all the generation step does is create the word factor, given the brown cluster. If you only have 50 clusters, and say, all your verbs go into 1 custers, then the generation step would just create lots of verbs, regardless of the source word.

Not only will this be a bad translation, you will prob run into time/memory issues when trying to decode

Thank you! What do you mean by "mapping is too general"? Would you suggest using the generation for coarse semantic classes (Supersenses)?

    This is my setup that generates target words from stems

       alignment-factors = "word -> word"

       reordering-factors = "word -> word"
       generation-factors = "stem -> word"

    you're not likely to get anything useful generating words from
    brown clusters - the mapping is just too general

    Hi,

    I'm using EMS and factorized translation. For instance, I have
    this setting:

    input-factors = word
    output-factors = word brown50
    alignment-factors = "word -> word"
    translation-factors = "word -> word+brown50"
    generation-factors = "brown50"
    reordering-factors = "word -> word"
    decoding-steps = "t0"

    that is, I have brown clusters as an output factor.

    Does someone can point me the proper way to add a generation step
    to create the surface word using the cluster factor?

    I tried:
    generation-factors = "brown50 -> word"
    but the experiment crashed durinh tuning

    Thanks in advance
    Marco
