David Silver told Master used 40 layers network in May. According to new paper, Master used the same architecture as Zero. So, Master used 20 blocks ResNet. The first instance of Zero, 20 blocks ResNet version, is weaker than Master (after 3 days training). So, with the same layers (a

Are you thinking the 1st instance could reach Master level if giving more training days? I don't think so. The performance would be stopping improving at 3 days. If not, why they built the 2nd instance? Best, Hideki Xavier Combelle: <05c04de1-59c4-8fcd-2dd1-094faabf3...@gmail.com>: >How is

How is it a fair comparison if there is only 3 days of training for Zero ? Master had longer training no ? Moreover, Zero has bootstrap problem because at the opposite of Master it don't learn from expert games which means that it is likely to be weaker with little training. Le 24/10/2017 à
