At least 10 times the corpus size, min 10GB. If your unzipped training data is 10GB, make sure you have at least 100GB on drive.
A x86_64 platform is required.
No minimum required.
- More cores generally will give you a faster training and translation request throughput.
- More clock speed will generally give you a faster translation for the single request.
- Min 5GB
- 1GB each 350MB of training data

docker pull modernmt/master
To run your istance and publish the API on port 8045 of your host, execute
docker run -it --publish 8045:8045 modernmt/master bash
Done! go to README.md to create your first engine.
MMT currently only works on Ubuntu 14.04
This release was tested on a clean Ubuntu 14.04 server from Amazon AWS. AMI: Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS (HVM), SSD Volume Type - ami-accff2b1
For training >100M words we suggest to use this instance: c3.4xlarge (30GB RAM, 16 core, circa $0.90/hour)
The current version of ModernMT does not limit the maximum number of open files for performance reasons. For this reason, if you plan to create an engine with a high number of different domains you could hit the OS limit and MMT will crash.
In order to avoid this error, in Ubuntu 14.04, you have to set the option nofile in /etc/security/limits.conf to a high limit and restart the machine, for example:
* soft nofile 1048576
* hard nofile 1048576
Install Java 8 if not present
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:openjdk-r/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdkCheck Java version with command:
java -version
If the first line report a version of Java prior 1.8, you need to update default Java version. Run command:
sudo update-alternatives --config java
and type the number of the option that contains java-8-openjdk, then press ENTER. Here's an example:
$ sudo update-alternatives --config java
There are 2 choices for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java).
Selection Path Priority Status
------------------------------------------------------------
* 0 /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java 1071 auto mode
1 /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java 1071 manual mode
2 /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java 1069 manual mode
Press enter to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: 2
Python 2.7 with module Requests is also required but it is pre-installed in Ubuntu.
Just in case Requests is not installed:
sudo apt-get install python-pip
sudo pip install -U requests
Download from here: https://github.com/ModernMT/MMT/releases and then untar the files:
tar xvfz mmt-0.14-ubuntu14_04.tar.gz
cd mmt
./setup.py
Done! go to README.md
Build MMT from source allows you to contribute to this repository. Please note that currently this procedure has been tested only on Ubuntu 14.04, it is highly recommended to use this OS as your development environment.
Open a bash shell and type:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:george-edison55/cmake-3.x
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:openjdk-r/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libbz2-dev libboost1.55-all-dev libsparsehash-dev cmake openjdk-8-jdk git maven
First, clone ModernMT repository and initialize its submodules:
git clone https://github.com/ModernMT/MMT.git ModernMT
cd ModernMT
git submodule init
git submodule update
Compile MMT submodules:
cd vendor
make
cd ..
Compile your MMT distribution:
cd src
mvn clean install
cd ..
Finally run the setup:
./setup.py
You have now a working instance of MMT. Go to README.md to find how to test your installation.
