Virtual Machine (VirtualBox)

You can find an image of a virtual machine with a running installation of the MT system here: https://pub.cl.uzh.ch/projects/squoia/squoia_1_1.ova

In order to use it, you need to install VirtualBox: If you're running Linux, there is a good chance VirtualBox is available through your package management, otherwise see see https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads

To use the squoia VM, go to File->Import Appliance in your virtualbox and select the squoia_1_1.ova file. Once installed, you can boot the virtual machine. User is squoia, password is quechua (also for root). The source files of this repository are in /home/squoia/squoia, to use the translation, open a terminal (e.g. LXTerminal) and go to the MT folder: squoia@squoiavm:~$ cd squoia/MT_systems

translate.pm is the perl script that handles the translation, for a detailed list of options use: squoia@squoiavm:~/squoia/MT_systems$ ./translate.pm --help

test the system with a simple sentence, output should look like this:

squoia@squoiavm:~/squoia/MT_systems$ echo "La casa azul es bonita." | ./translate.pm

The config used is a binary form of translate_vm.cfg, if you change something in translate_vm.cfg, call translate.pm with the option -c translate_vm.cfg to read it in, otherwise changes will not take effect.

The first run will always take a bit longer because the tagging and parsing services need to be started.

Input from a file instead of stdin can be passed with the option -f, check --help for more information about input and output formats. Encoding must be utf8.

IMPORTANT: RAM is currently set to 4 GB in the virtual machine, this can be too low. If you get an out of memory error during tagging, you can increase the RAM assigned to the VM in Settings->System->Motherboard->Base Memory (the virtual machine must be powered off to do so).

Installation

Note: this code is not maintained and the installation is cumbersome due to the large number of dependencies.

FreeLing

git clone https://github.com/TALP-UPC/freeling

Installation (make sure to install from sources, headers are needed), see: https://talp-upc.gitbooks.io/freeling-user-manual/content/installation.html

compile Freeling analyzer with crf output format for wapiti:

export FREELING_INSTALLATION_DIR= path to you installation of FreeLing
export SQUOIA_DIR= path to this package
g++ -c -o output_crf.o output_crf.cc -I$FREELING_INSTALLATION_DIR/include -I$SQUOIA_DIR/FreeLingModules/config_squoia
g++ -c -o analyzer_client.o analyzer_client.cc -I$FREELING_INSTALLATION_DIR/include -I$SQUOIA_DIR/FreeLingModules/config_squoia
g++ -std=gnu++11 -c  -o server_squoia.o server_squoia.cc -I$FREELING_INSTALLATION_DIR/include -I$SQUOIA_DIR/FreeLingModules/config_squoia
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$FREELING_INSTALLATION_DIR/lib
g++ -O3 -Wall -o server_squoia server_squoia.o output_crf.o -L$FREELING_INSTALLATION_DIR/lib -lfreeling -lboost_program_options -lboost_system -lboost_filesystem -lpthread

named entity classification:

g++ -std=gnu++11 -o nec nec.cc -I$FREELING_INSTALLATION_DIR/include -I$SQUOIA_DIR/FreeLingModules/config_squoia -L$FREELING_INSTALLATION_DIR/lib -lfreeling -lboost_program_options -lboost_system -lboost_filesystem -lpthread

analyzer_client:

g++ -O3 -Wall -o analyzer_client analyzer_client.o -L$FREELING_INSTALLATION_DIR/lib -lfreeling
export FREELINGSHARE=$FREELING_INSTALLATION_DIR/share/freeling

once compiled, you can test the server:

./server_squoia -f $SQUOIA_DIR/FreeLingModules/es_squoia.cfg  --server --port=$PORT 2> logtagging &
echo "eso es una prueba" |./analyzer_client $PORT

Link server_squoia, analyzer_client and nec to the /bin folder (optional, if you do not link them, change the paths in translate_example.cfg):

cd $SQUOIA_DIR/bin
ln -s ../FreeLingModules/server_squoia .
ln -s ../FreeLingModules/analyzer_client .
ln -s ../FreeLingModules/nec .

For system wide use, either link client and server to somewhere in your $PATH (e.g. in /usr/local/bin), or add their location to $PATH

Wapiti

https://wapiti.limsi.fr/

follow installation instructions, then adapt path to wapiti in FreeLingModules/example.cfg

MaltParser

http://www.maltparser.org/download.html

follow installation instructions, see http://www.maltparser.org/install.html

set maltPath in translate_example.cfg to your installation of maltparser

compile server-client modules ($MALTPARSER_DIR= path to your maltparser installtion):

cd $SQUOIA_DIR/MT_systems/maltparser_tools/src 
javac -cp $MALTPARSER_DIR/maltparser-1.8/maltparser-1.8.jar MPClient.java
javac -cp $MALTPARSER_DIR/maltparser-1.8/maltparser-1.8.jar MaltParserServer.java

move binaries to ../bin: mv MaltParserServer.class MPClient.class ../bin/

lttoolbox

http://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Lttoolbox

If you're on Linux, lttoolbox may be part of your distribution, e.g. Debian, and can be installed through your package managment system (make sure to install the development package as well, something like lttoolbox-dev or lttoolbox-devel). To compile the lexical transfer module in squoia:

cd $SQUOIA_DIR/MT_systems/matxin-lex
make

To compile the bilingual dictionary, do (only necessary if you made changes to es-quz.dix):

cd $SQUOIA_DIR/MT_systems/squoia/esqu/lexica
lt-comp lr es-quz.dix es-quz.bin
