Dear all, the results of the 9x9 computer-go event in Taiwan (including a 9x9 competition and games between humans and computers) can be seen at http://go.nutn.edu.tw/eng/main_eng.htm (see "news") These games were organized by the National University of Tainan and the Chang Jung Christian University (both in Taiwan).
For convenience, I report the results below - this should be consistent with the news above, forgive me in case of errors. The very nice point in this event is that there has been a large number of games with high-level humans. Also, a nice point for us is that mogo won the 9x9 competition :-) Essentially, mogo has usually won against 6D with 5 stones, lost against 6D with 4 stones, and won against 5D with 4 stones, with something between 320 and 480 cores of Huygens (amateur dans). MoGo was using a varying number of cores, from 320 to 800, and was consistently more than 1D for arithmetics like humanLevel - handicap (choose your favorite formula :-) ). On the other hand, mogo has lost in a 19x19 game with H7 against a 9P player; by the way, Kim already won against MoGo in the same H7 configuration but with time settings more favorable to MoGo (longer time settings). By the way, that was my first trip to Taiwan, a colleague in my lab was in Taiwan in the same time, and we both consider that the Taiwanese tradition of hospitality is incredibly impressive :-) Best regards, Olivier ============================== Two events at the intersection of computer-science and the game of Go were organized by the National University of Tainan (Taiwan) and Chang Jung Christian University (Taiwan): * a competition between machines (won by MoGo, youpi tralala) * some games against humans.
