Dear Sir,
Please find attached build.log.zip file I was asked to send you.
I used the command:
./bjam --with-boost=~/boost_1_55_01 -j8
to generate the error.

Can you please help me to correct this?

?
Best Regards,


Bassel Ahmad

Come and join us for the exciting SIGIR 2014 program of six days papers, posters, demonstrations, tutorials, workshops and social events, focused on research and development in the area of information retrieval.

http://sigir.org/sigir2014/index.php

It includes three SIGIR 2014 Plenaries:

ACM-W Athena Award Lecture: Putting Searchers into Search By Susan Dumais

Seeking Simplicity in Search User Interfaces By Marti Hearst

The data revolution: how companies are transforming with big data By Hugh E. Williams

The SIGIR 2014 registration is open (link below).

https://ei.eventinfotech.com.au/ei/rs.esp?id=1187&scriptid=HOME

Accommodation can also be reserved through the registration process, but of course the number of reserved rooms in the conference hotel/s is limited. The weekend sees the Gold Coast Marathon being run on 5/6 July and so accommodation should be arranged sooner rather than later.

many companies are using Moses commercial. It's not unethical or illegal.

The software license is LGPL. Therefore, if you use it commercially, you
should be aware of some things when you sell or distribute the software:
1. If you change moses, you have to make your changes open source
2. if your own (non-open source) software links to moses, you should
compile moses dynamically, rather than statically. This is to enable your
users to be able to upgrade their version of moses themselves

Hi,

I'm trying to do some feature engineering based on manipulating
different LM files. To do so I am trying to figure out how Moses
handles the loading of language models, (in stead of writing a simple
interface myself), also because I want to load all my models one time
and then query them according to the algorithms in my features.

So far I've seen that parameters.cpp parses the parameters, and that
StaticData::LoadDataStatic loads the LM. That's what it says in the
comments. Looking at the function I can't find it directly so I guess
it is done in the LoadFeatureFunctions function called from the LoadData
in the same file. But these things are not clear to me. The actual
loading seems to be done through templates in the LM/models.cc file.
Still I can't understand the overall structure here. Where is the
resulting class from this template actually called? I see that the LM
features are created in the parameters.cpp file, but I'm not able to
follow what happens to them next.

Summing up I both need some overview of the code so I understand what
goes where, but concretely what I want to do is to query an arbitrary
number of LMs in my feature file.

Thanks,
//LB

a language model ultimately inherits from FeatureFunction. It loads data by
overriding
virtual void Load();

you can see what else it can do in
FeatureFunction.h
