Re: [Computer-go] Frisbee Go

There's an assumption implicitly made here, which does not accord with my experience of frisbee Go: that the player will always aim at an intersection. Suppose I want to play on either of two adjacent points, and I don't care which. If I aim for one of them, I will land on one of them with probabi

Re: [Computer-go] Congratulations to Zen!

In round 26 gnugo vs matilda is this right "They then disagreed about the status of the black stones at the bottom of the board (they are dead, but even if they live somehow, White has still won)." By my count black has 48 and white 33+7. This caught my eye because matilda has a pretty good resig

Yes, my mistake. I have now corrected it to "Black has still won". Thank you for pointing it out. Nick On 22 February 2016 at 12:21, Gonçalo Mendes Ferreira wrote: > In round 26 gnugo vs matilda is this right > > "They then disagreed about the status of the black stones at the bottom > of the

Re: [Computer-go] Frisbee Go

You could express the intended move as a pair of real numbers. A random offset is then added, following some probability distribution (Gaussian, or uniform in a disk of a certain radius, or ...), and then the result is rounded to the nearest point of integer coordinates. What possibilities does thi

Dear Seo Sanghyeon, thanks a lot for your information. In German computer go forum FJ Dickhut (the winner of the codecentric Challenges in 2014 and 2015) gave the different levels of prize money (to Lee Sedol) for different outcomes of the match: 0:5 Lee gets 150.000 USD 1:4 Lee gets 170.000 USD

Hi Aja, > WeakBot's author might want to rename the program? It's not weak at all. :)   thanks for that comment. It is exactly what I was tempted to post. A simple change would be to WakeBot (simple shuffling the letters). By the way: is progress fine with respect to you

The most important skill in this game might be in how accurately you can throw your frisbee. Why take that out? Build real robots! ;-) Erik On Mon, Feb 22, 2016 at 4:42 PM, "Ingo Althöfer" <3-hirn-ver...@gmx.de> wrote: > Dear John, Dear Nick, Dear all, > > > > ... > > > Suppose I want to play on
