(I just forgot to mention that we take care of rotations / symetries) I was puzzeling what is the best way to organise an opening book? >> > > Our solution was the following. We have two possible structures: > 1) a big set of SGF games; > 2) an opening book in which one line contains p,w,l where > * p is a situation > * w is the number of wins > * l is the number of losses > > We can convert 1) to 2) easily. > > The advantages are: > 1) is quite comfortable for interactions with humans or will self-play > games; > 2) is much faster to read and to apply for choosing a move with various > formulas (it's quite analog to a MCTS tree). > > In particular, self-play for small boards is efficient for building good > opening books - well, I think it's better if you can have human experts, but > if you spend sufficiently many computational power on it you can build a > good opening book by self-play (the algorithm is by the way quite related to > MCTS). > > Best regards, hope it helps, > Olivier > > >
