Yes! It is really a naïve parallel operation, that's why I tried to do this with OpenMP. (I've used OpenMP with great success in other projects). I guess your suggestion is actually more pragmatic and doesn't need any more coding. I'll try that. Thanks. -Øystein On Mon, Jun 17, 2019 at 9:33 AM

And don't use OSR. This was good for bootstrapping in the old days, when CPU was much slower. On Mon, 17 Jun 2019 at 19:33, Joseph Heled wrote: > You have many independent runs, right? Why worry about multi-threading? > Divide the set into (say) 16 threads (or whatever makes sense for your CPU)

You have many independent runs, right? Why worry about multi-threading? Divide the set into (say) 16 threads (or whatever makes sense for your CPU) and run each set on another thread. -Joseph On Mon, 17 Jun 2019 at 19:28, Øystein Schønning-Johansen wrote: > Thanks for your input. I'm still

Thanks for your input. I'm still thinking about this. I really cannot decide which rollout code to use. :-) - sagnubg is really good but I have to tweak it a bit to make it work. I'm also not sure it is multi-threading. - GNU Backgammon, for sure it is good, but I probably have to build some

Thanks, I will try re-rolling out these positions. Do you have any experience of how to do good rollouts of race positions? Good rollout settings for race positions? -Øystein On Sun, Jun 9, 2019 at 11:38 PM Philippe Michel wrote: > On Fri, Jun 07, 2019 at 08:30:10PM +0200, Øystein

Hi, all! Out of curiosity I've just started to look into the race datasets. I notice something really strange. I take all the positions from http://files.gnubg.com/media/nn-training/pmichel/training_data/race-train-data.bz2 and from this I create a dataset for training. Then I take all
