Other board games #2

Hi, what is your feeling about whether this same project can be used to detect positions for other board games like scrabble? I am curious whether it's more like 20% or 80% of the code that can apply to another board game. Thanks.

Hi, there are specific parts of code for chess board processing (e.g. 8x8 board split), although I think it is more 80%, because the CNNs are just recognizing in the squares what they are learned to recognize. Letters in scrabble should be easier to be recognized then chess pieces, because letters defer more than chess pieces. Best regards, Krasimir
