| PRELIMINARIES | ||
|
|
||
| Before building you need to decide what language model toolkit (SRI's, | ||
| IRST's, or Ken's) you want to use. | ||
| Moses is primarily targeted at gcc on UNIX. | ||
|
|
||
| If you want to use SRI's, you will need to download its source | ||
| and build it. The SRILM can be downloaded from | ||
| http://www.speech.sri.com/projects/srilm/download.html . | ||
| Moses requires gcc, Boost >= 1.36, and zlib including the headers that some | ||
| distributions package separately. Most distributions package Boost but source | ||
| can also be downloaded from http://www.boost.org/. | ||
|
|
||
| There are several optional dependencies: | ||
|
|
||
| GIZA++ from http://code.google.com/p/giza-pp/ is used to build phrase tables. | ||
|
|
||
| If you want to use IRST's, you will need to download its source and | ||
| build it. The IRSTLM can be downloaded from either the SourceForge | ||
| website | ||
| The scripts support building ARPA format language models with SRILM or IRSTLM. | ||
| To apply models inside the decoder, you can use SRILM, IRSTLM, or KenLM. The | ||
| ARPA format is exchangable so that e.g. you can build a model with SRILM and | ||
| run the decoder with IRSTLM or KenLM. | ||
|
|
||
| If you want to use SRILM, you will need to download its source and build it. | ||
| The SRILM can be downloaded from | ||
| http://www.speech.sri.com/projects/srilm/download.html . | ||
| On x86_64, the default machine type is broken. Edit sbin/machine-type, find | ||
| this code | ||
| else if (`uname -m` == x86_64) then | ||
| set MACHINE_TYPE = i686 | ||
| and change it to | ||
| else if (`uname -m` == x86_64) then | ||
| set MACHINE_TYPE = i686-m64 | ||
| You may have to chmod +w sbin/machine-type first. | ||
|
|
||
| If you want to use IRSTLM, you will need to download its source and build it. | ||
| The IRSTLM can be downloaded from either the SourceForge website | ||
| http://sourceforge.net/projects/irstlm | ||
| or the official IRSTLM website | ||
| http://hlt.fbk.eu/en/irstlm | ||
|

| Ken's LM is included with the Moses distribution. | ||
| KenLM is included with Moses. | ||

||
| 1) Instructions for building with SRILM | ||
|
|
||
| Build SRILM according to their release instructions. Make sure that | ||
| you DO NOT override the MACHINE_TYPE variable on the command line when | ||
| you do so, as this can lead to problems locating the library. | ||
| BUILDING | ||
|
|
||
| ./bjam [--with-srilm=/path/to/srilm] | ||
|
|
||
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
| Building consists of running | ||
| ./bjam [options] | ||
|
|
||
| 2) Instructions for building with IRSTLM | ||
| Common options are: | ||
| --with-srilm=/path/to/srilm to compile the decoder with SRILM support | ||
| --with-irstlm=/path/to/irstlm to compile the decoder with IRSTLM support | ||
| --with-giza=/path/to/giza to enable training scripts | ||
| -jN where N is the number of CPUs | ||
|
|
||
| Build IRSTLM according to its release instructions. | ||
| Binaries will appear in dist/bin. | ||
|
|
||
| ./bjam [--with-irstlm=/path/to/irstlm] | ||
| For further documentation, run | ||
| ./bjam --help | ||

| ALTERNATIVE WAYS TO BUILD ON UNIX AND OTHER PLATFORMS | ||
|
|
||
| Microsoft Windows | ||
| ----------------- | ||
| Tested on 32-bit Windows XP and Vista using Visual Studio 2005. | ||
| Again, refer to the old manual | ||
| http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/s0565741/papers/developers-manual.pdf | ||
| The Windows build doesn't use the SRI or IRST language model libraries as they can't be compiled | ||
| under Windows using Visual Studio. Instead, an internal language model, which behave like SRILM is used, | ||
| however, it can only handle up to trigrams. | ||
| Moses is primarily targeted at gcc on UNIX. Windows users should consult | ||
| http://ssli.ee.washington.edu/people/amittai/Moses-on-Win7.pdf . | ||
|
|
||
| Binaries for all external libraries needed can be downloaded from | ||
| http://www.statmt.org/moses/?n=Moses.LibrariesUsed | ||

||
| Only the decoder is developed and tested under Windows. There are difficulties using the training scripts under Windows, even with Cygwin. | ||
