Re: [Computer-go] November KGS bot tournament

Oh, I didn't notice. S sad. Since AlphaGo, almost all academic organizations have stopped development but, instead, companies and privates are very actively developing these days. Perhaps, many of them don't know this tournament. Hideki Hiroshi Yamashita:

Hi, I would like to thank Nick very much, too. When I was working on Crazy Stone, these tournaments were a great source of motivation and enjoyment. I'll keep particularly good memories of the KGS-tournament parties in Tokyo. So, thanks Nick for a great contribution to our community. Rémi

You playing strength is anecdotal evidence. And quite often going through just systematic way your thinking is more valuable than the actual end product. As it programs you subconscious decision making. You said that it is not part of your decision making but that is unlikely to be true. People do

Re: [Computer-go] Source code (Was: Reducing network size? (Was: AlphaGo Zero))

I suspect the reason they were able to reasonably train a value net with multiple komi at the same time was because the training games they used in that paper were generated by a pure policy net, rather than by a MCTS player, where the policy net was trained from human games. Although humans give

By way of comparison. It would be ludicrous to ask a world champion chess player to explain their strategy in a "programmable" way. it would certainly result in a player much worse than the best computer player, if it were to be coded up, even if you spent 40 years decoding intuition, etc, and
