Re: [Moses-support] Factored models and xml-input

Update: It still works if there is any number of language models for factor 0. Once I add a single language model for factor 1, it fails. ___ Moses-support mailing list Moses-support@mit.edu http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/moses-support

I think you're onto something here, Marcin. If I remove all my language models and leave just the translation model, it works for me. Just for testing, what happens if you remove the second phrase table and add a langauge model for factor 1. Usually this kind of setup fails

Hi, we also have an experiment on truecasing, see Table 1 in http://www.statmt.org/wmt13/pdf/WMT08.pdf What works best for us is relying on the casing as guessed by the lemmatizer. (Our lemmatizer recognizes names as separate lemmas and keeps the lemma upcased; which we then cast to the token

Hi, If your system output is lowercase, you could try SRILM's `disambig` tool for predicting the correct casing in a postprocessing step. http://www.speech.sri.com/projects/srilm/manpages/disambig.1.html Cheers, Matthias On Fri, 2015-05-22 at 11:20 +0200, Ondrej Bojar wrote: Hi, we also

Re: [Moses-support] keep some features fixed when tuning

2015-05-22 Thread Vito Mandorino
Thank you all. Can you explain further what does it mean that MERT won't know that the feature exists? Does that mean that the tuneable feature weights are optimized assuming that all non-tuneable feature weights are equal to zero? In fact, in my understanding this should lead to a dramatic

Hi Vito Yes, that's basically what happens, and you're right that tuneable=false can be harmful to MERT - hence my warning. I've heard of people trying to keep the weights of a language model fixed through it, and this didn't work at all. MERT (but not MIRA) also supports the option -o to
