I suspect that even with a similarly large training sample for initialization that AlphaGo would suffer a major reduction in apparent skill level.
i think a human would also.
The CNN would require many more layers of convolution; the valuation of positions would be much more uncertain; play in the corner, edges, and center would all be more complicated patterns, and there would be far more good candidates to consider at each ply and rollouts would be much less stable and less accurate.
yes.
the normal board size is 19x19 because the amount of territory in the sides and corners is slightly larger than the amount of territory in the middle.
