Data Processing:

• Python 2.7
• To generate exactly the excat same data with same tokenization, you may require NLTK v2.0b7 and LangID.py v1.1.6.

Training Baseline and CroSent models:

• Python 3.6
• PyTorch 0.4.1

Training, and running rescorer:

• Python 2.7
• Moses v3

For training NUS3 models:

• Fast_align, Moses: for computing word alignments for edit weighted log likelihood loss

1. Run prepare_test.sh to prepare the test datasets.

2. Download all pre-requiste components (BPE model, embeddings, dictionaries, and pre-trained decoder) using the download.sh

3. Download CroSent models using download_pretrained_crosent.sh script.

4. Decode development/test sets with decode.sh.

./decode.sh $testset $modelpath $dictdir $optionalgpu

$testset is the test dataset name. The test dataset files are in the format data/test/$testset/$testset.tok.src (for the input source sentences) and data/test/$testset/$testset.tok.ctx (for the context sentences, i.e. 2 previous sentences per line)

$modelpath: could be a file for decoding using a single model or a directory for ensemble (any model with the name checkpoint_best.pt within the specified directory will be used in the ensemble). If single model, the decoder will output the files into a directory in the same location as the model path, with the name same as the model path with a prefix outputs.. If ensemble, the decoder will output the files into outptus/ directory within $model_path

$dictdir contains the path to the dictionaries. For pre-trained models it is models/dicts

$optionalgpu is an optional parameter indicating GPU id to run the decoding on (default=0).

5. Run rearnker using the downloaded weights:

./reranker_run.sh $outputsdir $testset $weightsfile $optionalgpu

where $outputsdir is the directory which contains the output of the decoding and $weightsfile is the paths to trained weights (in the case of pretrained weights, it is models/reranker_weights/weights.nucle_dev.txt)

Download the required datasets and run prepare_data.sh with the paths to Lang-8 and NUCLE to prepare the datasets.

Download all pre-requiste components (BPE model, dictionary files, embeddings, and pre-trained decoder) using the download.sh

Each training script train_*.sh has a parameter to specify the random seed value. To train 4 different models, run the training script 4 times by variying the seed values (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4)

For training the baseline models use train_baseline.sh script.

For training the crosent models, use train_crosent.sh script.

For training the NUS2 model, use train_nus2.sh script.

For training the NUS3 model

1. Generate alignments using fastalign (Requires fast_align and moses under tools/ directory), run create_alignment.py data/processed
2. Run train_nus3.sh script.

For training the reranker:

1. Decode development dataset using ./decode.sh (steps mentioned earlier). Set $outputsdir to the output directory of this decoding step.

2. Run ./reranker_train.sh $outputsdir $devset $optionalgpu
