[Computer-go] Fwd: Teaching Deep Convolutional Neural Networks to Play Go

[Hugh Perkins]

To be honest, what I really want is for it to self-learn, like David
Silver's TreeStrap did for chess, but on the one hand I guess I should
start by reproducing the existent, and on the other hand if we need
millions of moves to train the net, that's going to make for very slow
self-play...  Also, David Silver was associated with Aja Huang's
paper, and I'm guessing therefore that it is very non-trivial to do,
otherwise David Silver would have done it already :-)
