Go up one level in this thread



what do we like to optimize when making the decission between possible moves in
a current position?

eval(move,ply->max)->max

in words:
decission for the move with best/maximum evaluation within a search tree of
growing depth

OR

eval(move)->max, P(eval(root) is true) -> 1         or
eval(move)->max, eval(root) -> correct_eval(root)   or
eval(move)->max, P(changes in eval(root) -> 0)      or
eval(move)->max, Q(eval(root))->max

in words:
decission for the move with best/maximum evalution,
where we expand the searchtree in order to maximize
the correctness of the evaluation

or better

in order to make a maximum progress in improving the
correctness of the search tree

where
eval() is the evaluation of the search tree
eval(move,ply) is evaluation for a given move depending on number of plys of the
searchtree
ply is the number of plys
root is the current position or root of the search tree
x->max means a maximazation of x
x->1 means a maximazation of x towards 1
x->0 means a minimization of x towards 0
P(X) means something like the probability/likelihood of case X
Q(eval()) means the quality of the evaluation
