How to use memory-mapped suffix array phrase tables in the moses decoder
(phrase-based decoding only)
1. Compile with the bjam switch --with-mm
2. You need
- sentences aligned text files
- the word alignment between these files in symal output format
3. Build binary files
Let
${L1} be the extension of the language that you are translating from,
${L2} the extension of the language that you want to translate into, and
${CORPUS} the name of the word-aligned training corpus
% zcat ${CORPUS}.${L1}.gz | mtt-build -i -o /some/path/${CORPUS}.${L1}
% zcat ${CORPUS}.${L2}.gz | mtt-build -i -o /some/path/${CORPUS}.${L2}
% zcat ${CORPUS}.${L1}-${L2}.symal.gz | symal2mam /some/path/${CORPUS}.${L1}-${L2}.mam
% mmlex-build /some/path/${CORPUS} ${L1} ${L2} -o /some/path/${CORPUS}.${L1}-${L2}.lex -c /some/path/${CORPUS}.${L1}-${L2}.coc
4. Define line in moses.ini
The best configuration of phrase table features is still under investigation.
For the time being, try this:
PhraseDictionaryBitextSampling name=PT0 output-factor=0 num-features=9 path=/some/path/${CORPUS} L1=${L1} L2=${L2} pfwd=g pbwd=g smooth=0 sample=1000 workers=1
You can increase the number of workers for sampling (a bit faster),
but you'll lose replicability of the translation output.
