Hi Andrew,

I am sorry for the late reply. Regarding your question 3):

In the directory mert, there is a utility called "evaluator" which computes
various metrics for given candidate and reference files. To compute WER
score:

./evaluator --sctype WER --reference ref.txt --candidate cand.txt

For detailed usage:

./evaluator --help

Please contact me if you have any questions about this utility.

Best Regards,
Matous

Hi,

for experimental purposes I'm trying to modify the source of Moses so that it uses a TM only (no LM and no reordering). Does anybody know the source code well enough to give me a hint where I should start?

thanks,
James

No, but it does support hiero and syntax models.

Hi James

You can configure the features in moses.ini. Try leaving out the
language model and see what happens,
