Re: [Computer-go] Crazy Stone is back
I've been on a forced break from go programming since last August, but I hope to get back to it soon.

It is based on the AlphaZero approach. The "Weights" engine were in fact previous experimental versions. CrazyStone-18.03 is using time control and pondering instead of a fixed number of evaluations per move. So it should be much stronger than Weights_31_3200. Does anybody know who cronus is? It is _extremely_ strong. Its rating is low because it has had only weaker opponents, but it is undefeated so far, except for one loss on time, and some losses against other versions of itself. It has just won two games in a row against Crazy Stone. I hope the other strong engines will reconnect, too.

The absolute form would be: It should come as no surprise that L19, mapped to a position by laying out the 361 consecutive trits to a path on the 19x19 grid, and choosing which trit represents empty, is itself illegal. That would indeed be a ridiculous claim:-) > Basically it's using a more natural Hilbert-based curve instead of an > arbitrary row-wise mapping which doesn't take the topology of the Go-grid > into account. Let me now if you need any of the details in German > translated. The fact that you can describe my mapping simply as "row-wise" shows how it is quite non-arbitrary. Your Hilbert curve on the contrary can hardly be described in a much simpler way than in its full explicit form, betraying its arbitrariness...
