Chrilly, The computer go guys don't think of performance as a function of time, only as a kind of absolute, it plays good or it doesn't.
Us computer chess people are used to thinking of it as a function of how fast the computer is and how much memory (along with how well the code is written of course.) The UCT programs, assuming they are properly coded and bug free, all play perfectly, but what really counts is how well they play given some time constraint. Again, most of the computer GO people do not think in those terms. It's very encouraging to me that Hiroshi reported the thinking times, I think he understands that it is relevant. - Don On Wed, 2007-01-10 at 21:01 +0100, Chrilly wrote: > You must test with Gnu-Go level 16..
