Re: [Computer-go] What hardware to use to train the DNN

As I understand it: for C/C++ VS Code is just an editor not a compiler or debugger. But as VS 2015 can already work with LLDB and gdb it is only a question of time and free licensing of more .NET parts, I assume. - Michael. ___ Computer-go mailing

Re: [Computer-go] DCNN can solve semeai?

2016-02-02 Thread Michael Sué
Hi, I would expect this to happen if the system is trained by normal games, only. But I think the system should see actual live-and-death (LD) sequences (from some collection) to be able to learn about them and not soak this knowledge up from a whole game where most of the moves are "noise" c

Re: [Computer-go] Board evaluation using a convolutional neural network

2016-01-15 Thread Michael Sué
Well my point is more in the direction to get a good live-and-death solver, maybe completely independent of the game as a whole. Just train a DNN on some life-and-death collections with solutions, where all of the usual tricks are applied. I think this has the potential to get similar if not be

Hi, My experience is the same: My CNN was a very poor judge of life and death. Part of the problem is that I couldn't get Pachi to behave exactly the way I wanted (play to maximize score; play to the bitter end, assuming everything left after two passes is considered alive). But perhaps there is

And using a clearly defined http web server protocol, probably built around json, and then the clients will take care of themselves: all modern languages, except C/C++, come with a good web client library, and a good json library. Just hand out a helper C library, perhaps with a C++ wrapper API.
