SDL Language Technologies is looking for outstanding PhD students for summer internships with our research teams in Los Angeles (USA) and Cambridge (UK). Interns will work one-on-one with a mentor on a three-month NLP research project.

Our projects are centred around machine translation and natural language processing. The exact nature of the project will depend on the interests and background of the intern. The objective will be novel work of commercial value, and the expectation is that successful projects will lead to a paper submission. Examples of recent projects are:

- Target dependency language models in phrase-based decoding
- Source-side preordering for translation using logistic regression and depth-first branch-and-bound search
- Translating into morphologically rich languages
- Online adaptation of MT
- Predicting MT customer ratings

If interested, please send an email to mt-jobs@sdl.com by February 15, 2015, with "2015 Internship Application -- *your name*" in the subject. Please include your CV and a statement that describes your research interests and experience. U.S. citizenship / EU passport is not required, but please indicate your preference for working in Los Angeles or in Cambridge.

SDL Language Technologies (previously: Language Weaver) is the first company to bring a statistical translation system to market. Its R&D team solves large-scale NLP problems with the goal of increasing MT's commercial impact

You could use the files from OPUS but they are in XML:

http://opus.lingfil.uu.se/MultiUN/raw/ar/
http://opus.lingfil.uu.se/MultiUN/raw/en/

The sentence alignment is standoff annotation in this file:
http://opus.lingfil.uu.se/MultiUN/raw/ar-en.xml.gz

You can use this script to convert to Moses format if you like:

Good luck!

directly to the moses.ini file

Dear
The good news is that most of https://github.com/moses-smt/mosesdecoder.git
successfully build and tested under the latest version of cygwin.
The only failure was BackwardTest:
