Quoting Darren Cook <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
But that is just an impression I'd picked up from day to day reading of
this list; and at CG2008 people were still talking about AMAF in their
papers (*). Can someone with a strong bot confirm or deny that AMAF is
still useful?
Valkyria probably has the (?) heaviest and slowest playouts of all
stronger programs.
Thanks to AMAF Valkyria searches extremely selective. I have not tried
to turn of AMAF. I am currently comparing Valkyria with the results
from 13x13 scaling study.
http://cgos.boardspace.net/study/13/index.html
Here is just one datapoint for level 4 the programs uses 1024
simulations per move.
LeelaLight 824 Elo
Leela 1410 Elo
Mogo 1599 Elo
Valkyria 1860 after 100 games
in general it as least 200 Elo stronger than Mogo using the same
number of simulations. But currently I think Mogo is fast enough to be
slightly stronger on equivalent hardware using normal time controls.
If I turned off AMAF for Valkyria I would probably have to retune all
parameters to make a fair comparison, but I am quite sure that crudely
turning it off would be very bad.
