Hi again,

Thank you for the answer. With the "Alternate Weight Settings", each
translation table is considered apart from the other and the tuning is
done for each one and this is not what I need.

Sorry for the confusion, may be I should say instead of my previous
message, that I have one translation table that is divided into different
files and each file is related to one sentence (because of some features
of that sentence). To translate one sentence, I need to load the
corresponding file.
Besides, the combination of all the files form the hole translation table.
So, I just need to tune the translation table once and to have one weight
at the end and not different weights for each file.

Does Moses have an option to do that?

Thank you,
Dorra

i've just added a new phrase-table to do what you're looking for, please
git pull to get it.

The phrase-table is called
PhraseDictionaryMemoryPerSentence

I haven't tested it yet. If it crashes, please try and fix it yourself.
Get back to me if you can't

You can tune with binarized tables and language models. First, set your
starting `--config moses.ini` file to use the binarized (compact, etc)
files. Then, add the command-line argument `--no-filter-phrase-table`.
With these steps, mert-moses.pl will skip filtering the tables and use
the exact settings in your starting moses.ini.

Am I reading this wrong or is this just an oversight. I am about to tune a number of systems so if binarising the phrase table before hand is likely to speed up the tuning process it would be useful to know before I set this thing running. Of course, I wouldn't usually complain about having an excuse not to do any work for a few days but, well, you know...
