Hi Vito

The tcmalloc message is normal.

Are you absolutely sure you are using the same model (and same pre- and post-processing)? A difference of 5 or 14 bleu should be quite visible in the output. What do the outputs look like?

Hi Barry,

actually with OnDisk table there is virtually no difference (0.2 average difference no matter if re-tuning has been done or not). With compact Phrase-table however the difference is larger. The latest test this morning yields a loss of 14 Bleu score points without re-tuning. I don't know which could be the cause.
Sometimes there is this message on loading the phrase-tables
tcmalloc: large alloc 1149427712 bytes == 0x28a54000 @

After re-tuning however the difference in BLEU score gets smaller even with compact phrase-table.

Best regards,
Vito

    Hi Vito

    The 0.2 difference is after retuning? That's normal then.

    But a difference of 5 bleu without retuning suggests a bug. Did
    you say that this only happens with PhraseDictionaryMultiModel?

    cheers - Barry

    Thank you. In our tests it seems that with the OnDisk table the
    quality is basically the same between the two versions of Moses
    (average 0.2 difference in score Bleu) but for the
    CompactPhraseTable the difference is larger (2 points Bleu loss
    in average after re-tuning with the new version of Moses, and
    more than 5 points Bleu in average without re-tuning).
    Do you think a better quality would be obtained by running a
    complete re-training of the model with the new version of Moses?

        There was a change in the underlying datastructure for
        stacks, it changed from std::set (ordered) to
        boost::unordered_set.

        Hi,

        in some of our tests a recent version of Moses (pulled from
        github last week) and an older one do not give the same

        This looks very strange. The only difference is in the
        phrase-table scores. Do you have any idea of what is going
        on? The only possibility which come to mind is maybe a
        different handling of the PhraseDictionaryMultiModel feature.
        The moses.ini is in attachment.

        Best regards,

        Vito
