Uri's progress has been nothing short of magnificent. I expect it will continue as well, because he is careful and thorough.

Yes, he has made a lot of progress and all based mostly on his own idea. Hopefully his next version will surpase the 2700Dann Corbit wrote:Uri's progress has been nothing short of magnificent. I expect it will continue as well, because he is careful and thorough.

first testing showed good results but after more results it seems that I got total result of slightly less than 50% so I do not trust my change to be an improvement.
results at fixed number of nodes based on my memory were:
movei00_8_425-movei00_8_423 56-44

I can add that 425 progress 0 0 0 personality achieved better result against 423 default personality in my tests so far.Uri Blass wrote:Note that I did not send you the latest version compiled by dann corbit because I have no evidence that it is an improvement.pichy wrote:Yes, he has made a lot of progress and all based mostly on his own idea.

results in 2 matches of 100 games are:
movei00_8_425 0 0 0-movei00_8_423 49.5-50.5 at 100,000 nodes per move
movei00_8_425 0 0 0-movei00_8_423 58-42 at 1,000,000 nodes per move
I am also testing 425 0 0 0 against 423 0 0 0 to see if this is an improvement.
There are 2 questions to investigate
1)Is progress 0 0 0 weaker or better than the default?
2)Is 425 weaker or better than 423?
The only thing that I can say is unsure for both questions.

425 0 0 0 personality(you need to write 4 0's if you use it as winboard engine) seems to be the best version that I have inspite of not having enough games to know
Maybe 423 0 0 0 is also better than 423 10 10 10
ccrl only compared between 423 10 10 10 and 421 10 10 10 but I am not interested in testing 421 0 0 0(I do not believe that it can be significantly stronger than 421 10 10 10 and if there is a difference the difference is small).

Re: Yes Uri progress 0 0 0 seems to be a strong personality
I simply use default values except
progress 0 0 0 0
In other words
progress 0 0 0 0 is the personality.
Note a;sp that 423 that was tested by CCRL use default values and I was not convinced that other personalities that I tried are better.
