Re: [computer-go] The Zen program
Yamato, It looks like Zen19 doesn't implement handicap stone komi compensation the same way kgs does for Chinese rules. It's the only reason I can think that it lost this game: http://files.gokgs.com/games/2009/3/27/TaPaHka-Zen19.sgf - Andy, aka yoyoma On Thu, Mar 26, 2009 at 5:54 PM, Yamato yamato...@yahoo.co.jp wrote: Rémi Coulom wrote: Martin Mueller wrote: Zen has been getting very impressive results on CGOS. Yamato-san, could you tell us a little bit about yourself and your program? Thanks Martin Yes, very strong results. Congratulations to Yamato-san for beating Crazy Stone. I am curious about hardware. On CGOS, Crazy Stone is running on core2 duo (2 threads). Rémi Hi Martin Rémi, thanks for having interest in my program. Zen runs on Quad-Core AMD Opteron. I suppose it has nearly the same strength as Crazy Stone. It is running on KGS now and you can see its games from here. http://www.gokgs.com/gameArchives.jsp?user=zen19 I am an individual programmer in Japan.

[computer-go] Extra komi for Handicap stone compensation on KGS
FYI, here is a link and the relevant quotes for the way KGS gives white extra komi based on handicap stones in some rules. http://www.gokgs.com/help/rulesets.html Chinese - The white player is given one point extra komi for every handicap stone that Black gets at the start of the game. AGA - ...the white player is given one point of extra komi for all but the first handicap stone that Black gets at the start of the game New Zealand - New Zealand rules are like Chinese rules except that playing a multi-stone suicide move is allowed. (I assume this means New Zealand also includes extra komi for handicap stones). ___ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
