thesis

Repository for my Master thesis on The effects of word segmentation quality on word alignments. The thesis PDF can be found here. This repository handles the following functions:

  • Datasets: English-German, English-Romanian, English-Hindi. To any other datasets, add a folder with the names of the language pairs in data/input and under it the txt files with the following format: 'eng_with_X.txt', for X number of sentences and for both languages, and the gold standard. See examples in data/input
  • Alignment models: Fastalign, Eflomal
  • Sampling methods: Dropout
  • Tokenization: space mode, no space mode

These parameters and others can be set in settings.py.

Installation and run

Fastalign installation

sudo apt-get install libgoogle-perftools-dev libsparsehash-dev
cd /path/to/project
mkdir tools
cd tools
git clone https://github.com/clab/fast_align.git
cd fast_align
mkdir build
cd build
sudo apt install cmake
cmake ..
make

Eflomal installation

cd /path/to/project/tools
git clone https://github.com/robertostling/eflomal.git
cd eflomal
make
sudo make install
python3 setup.py install

Install dependencies

pip -r install requirements.txt

Modify settings.py for your desired parameters. To run all pipeline:

./run.sh

If you get an error like /bin/bash^M: bad interpreter: No such file, run this:

sed -i -e 's/\r$//' run.sh # https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14219092/bash-script-and-bin-bashm-bad-interpreter-no-such-file-or-directory
./run.sh
