[Moses-support] A problem with Interpolated-LM

FYI we resolved the problem off-list. KenLM does not load IRST's iARPA format. You must first run IRST"s compile-lm to generate an ARPA. I might add an error message specific to this case. On 07/27/11 09:27, Lee Ball (Applied Language) wrote: > Hi guys, > > I just tried using KenLM out of inte
