I think the whole idea is that it should improve raw prediction rate on unseen samples too. The motivation of the increased suprevision is to improve the hidden representation in the network, making it more suitable for longer-term tactical predictions and therefore "stronger" and better encompassing the board situation. This should result in better one-move predictions in a situation where the followup is also important. It sounds rather reasonable to me...? -- Petr Baudis If you have good ideas, good data and fast computers, you can do almost anything. -- Geoffrey Hinton _______________________________________________ Computer-go mailing list Computer-go@computer-go.org http://computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go
