Support gomocup protocol #2

Closed tianshuo closed 6 years ago

tianshuo commented 6 years ago

The source code for the protocol can be found here: https://github.com/stranskyjan/pbrain-pyrandom/blob/master/pisqpipe.py

Then it can be used with the Piskvork gomoku manager to compare with other engines like http://www.aiexp.info/pages/yixin.html (which is presently the top gomoku engine)

This repo just serves the purpose of studying the RL principle behind the success of AlphaZero, which learns from pure self-play. In fact, to train a good model for the 15*15 board requires a lot of computation (AlphaZero originally used 5000 TPUs), which is beyond the computational power I have. So there is no plan to make it strong enough so as to compare with top gomoku engines.

By playing with other engines, it is possible to estimate the ELO rating of your engine, and see how the ranking of your engine is improving.
