Hi Jakob

There has been a lot of further work on the mira branch, but the changes have 
not been checked in to the public repository yet. Hopefully this will happen 
very soon. The latest version produces better results,

Cheers - Barry

Subject: [Moses-support] Mira optimization branch
To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]>

Hi,
Is anyone working on the mira optimization branch?  I have run quite a few 
tests, and the programs seem to be running ok.  The problem is that 
optimization always leads to a worse bleu score on the tune set that I am 
optimizing on, compared to the start (unoptimized) parameters. An example:

Unoptimized params:    BLEU = 12.37, 46.7/16.8/7.7/3.9 (BP=0.998, ratio=0.998, 
hyp_len=47416, ref_len=47498)
First epoch params:    BLEU = 11.37, 46.6/16.0/7.1/3.4 (BP=0.982, ratio=0.982, 
hyp_len=46643, ref_len=47498)
Second epoch params:    BLEU = 11.35, 46.7/16.0/7.1/3.4 (BP=0.981, ratio=0.981, 
hyp_len=46605, ref_len=47498)

I am optimizing on a vanilla moses system with 14 params being optimized. I 
have tried different start params with same result.
