The discussion changed the subject to joseki, but the paper is not about joseki at all. (There is a poster about joseki in the same website.)
The "Power of Forgetting" is an improvement to the previous Last-Good Reply idea. The results are spectacular and implementation is super-simple. Looks like RAVE applied to playouts, the simple heuristic that beats more ambitious ideas. It improves a MoGo-like policy: (capture, escape, 3x3) from ~10% to ~35% with 8K playouts and from ~25% to ~65% with 32K playouts. (Winrate against GnuGo) in 19x19! Something i guess, everybody will want to try. I will.
