These are compared to the default SRI build (i.e. without their smaller structures). I'm working on optimizing this even further. - -Binary format via mmap is supported. Run ./build_binary to make one then pass the binary file name instead. - -Currently, it assumes POSIX APIs for errno, sterror_r, open, close, mmap, munmap, ftruncate, fstat, and read. This is tested on Linux and the non-UNIX Mac OS X. I welcome submissions porting (via #ifdef) to other systems (e.g. Windows) but proudly have no machine on which to test it. - -A brief note to Mac OS X users: your gcc is too old to recognize the pack pragma. The warning effectively means that, on 64-bit machines, the model will use 16 bytes instead of 12 bytes per n-gram of maximum order. - -It does not depend on Boost or ICU. However, if you use Boost and/or ICU in the rest of your code, you should define USE_BOOST and/or USE_ICU in util/string_piece.hh. Defining USE_BOOST will let you hash StringPiece. Defining USE_ICU will use ICU's StringPiece to prevent a conflict with the one provided here. By the way, ICU's StringPiece is buggy and I reported this bug: http://bugs.icu-project.org/trac/ticket/7924 . - -The recommend way to use this: -Copy the code and distribute with your decoder. -Set USE_ICU and USE_BOOST at the top of util/string_piece.hh as instructed above. -Look at compile.sh and reimplement using your build system. -Use either the interface in lm/ngram.hh or lm/virtual_interface.hh -Interface documentation is in comments of lm/virtual_interface.hh (including for lm/ngram.hh). - -I recommend copying the code and distributing it with your decoder. However, please send improvements to me so that they can be integrated into the package. - -Also included: -A wrapper to SRI with the same interface. |
