Hello all! I post an answer to Cristophe's posting, but it was too close to message list's end. >An idea I have played with, and which worked somehow in the 16 bits version of >Chess Tiger is to: I'm using in SmarThink a scheme like you described but with some differences. I'm searching some first moves, captures and extended moves to full depth. Other moves I'm searching with reduced depth (the reducing amount depends of several factors, for example if the opponent king safety is worse and it's a move that going piece closer to opponent's king then reducing amount will be less e.t.c., I'm using here a lot of knowledge including trajectories analysis e.t.c.). If the reduced search returns value > alpha, I'm researching this move to full depth. There are a lot of possibilities to include a lot of knowledge here to build really knowledge-guided tree.
