The neural networks are pre-trained. There is no adjustment to the neural networks (i.e.. training) while the users are using their downloaded versions. Frankly, the strength of the evaluation engine, which is (mostly) based on neural networks, has become so strong that it is really hard for us to improve it further. Joseph, who train the current neural networks, did a fantastic job, and fundamental changes to the neural networks must be done to improve the strength of it game. (I don't think anyone in the development team have been working on the neural networks lately?) -Øystein ------------------------------------------------------------------- The information contained in this message may be CONFIDENTIAL and is intended for the addressee only.
