Now, I love this idea. A super fast cheap pattern matcher can act as input into a neural network input layer in sort of a "pay additional attention here and here and...".

Pattern matching as such did not show up as a significant component of Pebbles. But that is mostly because all of the machinery that makes pattern-matching cheap (incremental updating of 3x3 neighborhoods, and related tricks) was a large component. But I think that is the basic idea: pre-compute or incrementally compute some basic functions of the board position so that pattern matching is cheap. Then add as many patterns as possible. *From:* Computer-go [mailto:computer-go-boun...@computer-go.org] *On Behalf Of *Jim O'Flaherty *Sent:* Monday, April 17, 2017 7:05 AM *To:* computer-go@computer-go.org *Subject:* Re: [Computer-go] Patterns and bad shape It seems chasing down good moves for bad shapes would be an explosion of "exception cases", like combinatorially huge. So, while you would be saving some branching in the search space, you would be ballooning up the number of patterns for which to scan by orders of magnitude. Wouldn't it be preferable to just have the AI continue to make the better move emergently and generally from probabilities around win placements as opposed to what appears to be a focus on one type of local optima?

I'm looking into MM, LFR and similar cpu-based pattern approaches for generating priors, and was wondering about basic bad shape: Let's say we use 6d games for training. The system becomes pretty good at predicting 6d moves by learning patterns associated with the kind of moves 6d players make. However it seems it doesn't learn to punish basic mistakes effectively (say double ataris, shapes with obvious defects ...) because they almost never show up in 6d games =) They show up in the search tree though and without good answer search might take a long time to realize these moves don't work. Maybe I missed some later paper / development but basically, Wouldn't it make sense to also train on good answers to bad moves ? (maybe harvesting them from the search tree or something like that) I'm thinking about basic situations like this which patterns should be able to recognize: A B C D E F G H J K L M N O P Q R S T +---------------------------------------+ 19 | . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . | 18 | . . .
