Can the lecture be recorded or broadcast for those of us who can’t be there?

These deep neural networks are > trained by a novel combination of supervised learning from human expert > games, and reinforcement learning from games of self-play. Without any > look ahead search, the neural networks play Go at the level of state- > of-the-art Monte Carlo tree search programs that simulate thousands of > random games of self-play. We also introduce a new search algorithm > that combines Monte Carlo simulation with value and policy networks. > Using this search algorithm, our program AlphaGo achieved a 99.8% > winning rate against other Go programs, and defeated the human European > Go champion by 5 games to 0. In March 2016 AlphaGo defeated Lee Sedol, > the strongest human Go player in the last decade. > ******************************************************************** > > Hope, you all will come. > > Cheers, Ingo. > _______________________________________________ > Computer-go mailing list > [email protected] > http://computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go _______________________________________________ Computer-go mailing list [email protected] http://computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go
