[computer-go] Announcement: Many Faces vs. James Kerwin, 2/14
At the annual meeting of the AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science) in Chicago next weekend, I've organized a symposium called "Games People Play: Challenges of Applying Mathematics and Computers to Games". Before the symposium there will be a press briefing, and during the press briefing there will be a match between David Fotland's Many Faces of Go, running on a 32-node cluster supplied by Microsoft for the match, and James Kerwin 1p. Many Faces was the winner of the 13th Computer Go Olympiad last year, with a 12-0 record. (MoGo was 2nd, losing only to Many Faces.) Mr. Kerwin was the first American Go professional, achieving his professional ranking at the Nihon Ki-in in Tokyo, in 1978. He currently resides in Minneapolis, and is very active in teaching Go. The game will be played on KGS, and will begin at 12:15 pm CST, on Saturday 2/14. Time limits will be 45 minutes per side. The handicap will be determined by preliminary play. Anyone who might be in Chicago for the AAAS meeting might be interested in the symposium as well. It will run from 3:30 - 5:00 pm on the 14th, with the following talks: "Combinatorial Game Theory and Go" -- Elwyn Berlekamp, University of California, Berkeley "Games Computers Can't Play" -- Robert A. Hearn, Dartmouth College "Bridging the Gap Between Game Theory and Real-World Competitive Multiagent Systems" -- Navin Bhat, University of Toronto More information on the AAAS meeting is available at http://www.aaas.org/meetings/ .

Re: [computer-go] How to "properly" implement RAVE?
I'm currently tied up but you can get my MCTS implementation, which includes RAVE, and set it up to play 50K playouts. It's only a matter of setting the right number in the configuration file. You can also use it to play through two-gtp, that way you can test an awful lot faster.

Many thanks to the bots provided. Does someone have a bot that does 50k light playouts + RAVE? I would be most grateful if you could put them online for a few days of testing. :-) I do, and I will. I'm just slow... I reimaged my machine a while back... By the way, I've seen 2 games when checking my bot's status where one of the "myCtest" bots lost because of an illegal ko move.

The rating of the bot still seems to be drifting upwards, but I think I can conclude my UCT implementation is OK afterall. Many thanks to the bots provided. Does someone have a bot that does 50k light playouts + RAVE? I would be most grateful if you could put them online for a few days of testing. :-) By the way, I've seen 2 games when checking my bot's status where one of the "myCtest" bots lost because of an illegal ko move.
