This was linked from Mig's column on the chessbase site.

The author makes some good points, but the following is not supported by any
reference that I could find.

"It is precisely in this area of applying pattern recognition to the crucial
pruning decision that Deep Fritz has improved considerably over Deep Blue.
Despite Deep Fritz having available only about 1.3% as much brute force
computation, it plays chess at about the same level because of its superior
pattern-recognition-based pruning algorithm."

Does Fritz use a neural-net approach?  Where did Kurzweil get this?
