Hello Thomas, hello Robert, I see what yoou mean. My situation is, however, somewhat special. (1) I am not a programmer. (2) I want to use commercialy available go bots in human+computer teams.
So, I want to learn how to read the information these bots give during their analysis. And one of the (more detailed) questions was/is, how to read upcoming Seki (and how often Seki occurs at all). Of course, I am aware that Seki is one of the possible outcomes of a semeai. Look into the following diagrams. They are from the Aya-vs-Zen game on 13x13 from the KGS bot tournament in August 2015. http://althofer.de/seki-sequence.html Knowing the outcome of the game, it is rather straightforward to interpret the histograms. What I need (in the future) is to understand the development of the fight during the running game. Thanks again for making the whole complex more clear for me. Cheers, Ingo. > Gesendet: Montag, 18.
