Here is my take on joseki and fuseki in computer programs.
My older program Viking, had a quite nice patternmatching feature which matched the entire board or smaller parts of it towards a database of 50k games or so. It makes it play nice but as far as I could tell it had no impact on the strength of the program.
With 9x9 I have used many systems learned or handmade, but it all boils down to that as been said earlier. It only works for a program that does not change, since it overfits its own strengths and weaknesses.
