Hi Lexi, The feature most likely won't be particularly important.
But this might be a completely different issue than you think. You should debug this. Can you print the phrase pair that is applied when the error occurs? I recently came across a segfault that seemed to be caused by the OSM feature. Then it turned out that a collision in the compact phrase table entailed out-of-bounds word alignments. The solution (recommended by Marcin) was to switch to modified parameters for phrase table binarization, thereby avoiding the collision. The modified binarization parameters are now default: https://github.com/moses-smt/mosesdecoder/commit/506427368fbb9b980784ed55a68777be43896e8a Cheers, Matthias On Fri, 2015-04-17 at 22:31 +0100, Alexandra Birch wrote: > Hi there, > > > I have a seg fault with a normal master branch of Moses from 1 month > ago, on a normal seeming test sentence.
