Hi I'm currently using the method described here to detect if a group is in atari (1 real liberty):
http://computer-go.org/pipermail/computer-go/2007-November/012350.html Thus I store the number of pseudo libs, the sum and the sum of squares for each group. Now for heavy playouts, it would be useful if I could somehow modify this so I can easily detect if a group can be put into atari (meaning it has exactly 2 real liberties). My intuition tells me it should be possible by also storing the sum of positions^3. However, I can't quite wrap my head around how to do the check. Has anyone looked into this before, and found an answer? I like this approach because it's so easy and fast.
