Training appears to work with passing "-placeholder-factor 1 -xml-input exclusive" to mert-moses and I get the expected results throughout the tuning process.
Unfortunately, it appears that the compact phrase table implementation (reordering is fine) is not compatible with placeholders. I found some inconclusive discussion of the issue about a year ago. I am working with the 2.1.1 release, and will investigate the 3.x release -- does anyone have any information or experience using placeholders, the compact phrase tables, and mosesserver (another sometimes problematic element) together? Thanks, mike.
