Rene, Terry, Thanks for the warm welcome and the information! Terry, I'll have to explore that, but it seems to be a corollary of The Way Things Are more than anything else, isn't it? Someone did send me a link to the Go Library - there is now tons of stuff to read in there. Most of the programs out there now are Neural Networks, it seems. Are there any who tried to play with knowledge hard-wired in there, such as Smart Go (http://www.smart-games.com/knowpap.txt) ? And if so, what is that knowledge? On the topic of academia.. While I would love to actually do graduate studies around the game of go, I may have to do something boring, like solving a real-world problem that would make people's lives better (gasp). Does anyone have an idea of real-world problems which could be correlated to go as far as AI goes (besides developing my own brew of Psychohistory) ? Does anybody here use Ruby at all for coding? Or is everyone using lower-level languages like C++ ? - -- Aldric Giacomoni Every civilization must contend with an unconscious force which can block, betray or countermand almost any conscious intention of the collectivity. -- Tleilaxu Theorem (unproven) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkruM88ACgkQVcTYcihtgGJgyACg1yZ9AsdFmd9OoZVvXhy3rVYc 4NoAn0NjHmKzCHisoKxEZWPpFF5g4vxe =7LnW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list computer-go@computer-go.org http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
