Hello Uri! I thought of scientific experiments , to understand better some points of IA without any inference of marketing topics that POLLUTE everything Moreover , since the matter is with commercial engines any usr may repeat the test and be sure that there was no cheat Now the fact of falling into the fegatello trap is only a symptom of a much broader failure ; correcting it punctually would not avoid to fall in all the traps of the same kind it's also possible to use specialized opening books: so , one can know the general mood of the game, not prepare against it: else , it would be to change the personality of the engine (what could be good), for instance one could choose king's gambit for which there are excellent opening books : a program "corrected" for all king's gambits would be a quite different program I wonder if it is possible with some of the top programs (hiarcs9 ?) for the fegatello test , it would be of no use to correct only it IMO , the failure to this test results either in a search not deep enough , or in a too drastic pruning , so a local correction would not prevent to fall in another trap of the same kind you see, we are much beyond the SSDF tests, that IMO have no significance: a program which is worth 2800 with King's gambit may be worth only 2000 with QGD Orthodox and vice versa : where is the true ELO??
