That's pretty much how I looked at it as well. For getting a high prediction rate it is indeed a very useful feature, but it is unclear to me how important that really is. Some increased tenuki power may also have its merits. Perhaps I'll just run some experiments with Steenvreter to see what happens. I wonder how much worse a 6d human predictor would do without move history ;-) Erik _______________________________________________ Computer-go mailing list Computer-go@computer-go.org http://computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go
