Hi,
(This is my first post in lifein19x19. dokidoki^^)

I have developed and released an iPad app, which uses AlphaGo Zero type engine with ELF OpenGo weight (v1).
Here is an introduction page of the app.
https://new3rs.github.io/a_master_of_go/index.html

Brand-new A12X Bionic processor achieves max. 170 playouts per second. I think that this value is better than usual note PCs' and comparable to usual desktop PCs' though not better than gaming PCs'.

I hope that people here will be interested in my app.

Thanks!

I bought it to review my pandanet games but the app it's unable to load pandanet sgfs , maybe the nod count can be against a solid color to better appreciate the number? , overall an interesting app , hope to see some improvements in the future. :salute:

GrĂ¼nauer-san,
Thank you so much to purchase my app!

I promise to improve the issues which you kindly pointed out.

About the button with numbers, it means a submode to show variations which the AI is reading.
While the button is highlight, if you touch a candidate move, then the primary variation of that candidate move will appear such as mouse-over on Lizzie.

You encourage me to develop the app very much.
Thank you!

Kaliwan-san,

Thank you very much to purchase my app!
I will research pandanet SGFs.

I will never notice this issue if you had not told me.
Thank you!

to be able to disable sound will be good and icloud integration for loading sgfs will be a nice feature

Import from kgs does not work.

Can someone explain the meaning of the different colors and the red circle?

I love this--there's a real gap for strong AIs in the iOS world.

Selfishly, what are the odds that there's an iPhone version in the works? I'm due for a new phone sometime soon, and I imagine you'd get decent performance out of an A12 chip.

Thanks for developing this. I've also purchased it - and like it a lot.

Kaliwan san,

Thank you for your suggestions!
I had to have a principle to keep it simple when developing this first version to release it early.
I may add setting modal and consider to add silent mode in the next major version,
The functionality for files is also same.
When you add some functionality, you are alway bothered by where it places^^;

Thank you!

casch san,

Thank you for using my app and repeating a bug!
I will investigate KGS SGFs.
I am sorry for inconvenience.

The fill colors and border colors are compatible with Lizzie.
The fill-blue means a primary candidate with most visits in the meaning of Monte-Carlo Tree Search.
The read-border means that the primary candidate does not have highest winrate.
The blue-border means that it has the highest winrate though not the primary candidate.
The gradations of fill colors means a degree of visits.

I hope that you will enjoy my app more.

GrĂ¼nauer san,

Oh, it must be a bug. I am so sorry.
I will try to reproduce it on my device.
Thank you very much, and sorry for inconvenience.

hyperpape san,

Thank you for your interest in my app!

The app itself works well on iPhone, but 19x19 board is too big for iPhone at present.
So I gave up to release the app as universal one.
I will devise user interface for users to play more easily.
Please wait for a while.

Bonobo san,

Thank you for your interest in my app!
I am using an iPad1 and an iPad3 and added a new iPad Pro in the time.
I am so satisfied with the new iPad Pro by my app^^
I hope that next iPad will have A12X Bionic and will be more affordable.

Thanks for your reply. So for an analysis, I have to look for the blue circle (best move) and the upper numbers (winning probability)?

Post subject:  Re: A Go AI app for iPad with that strong neural network

casch san,

Yes, you are right.
The fill-blue move is the one which the AI will play at that moment.
The upper number is a winrate of that move and the lower number is a visits count by Monte-Carlo Tree Search.

When you see blue and red border cirles, it means that the AI is not confident of the fill-blue move yet.
If you give the AI time enough, blue and red border cirles will disappeaer and the AI is confident of the recommended move at this moment.

Sorry for no explanation in the app and I hope that this will be helpful for your Go life^^

Post subject:  Re: A Go AI app for iPad with that strong neural network

casch san,
(Sorry for many typo in my previous post^^;)

Yes, currently my app supports only even games with 7.5 komi.
I will fix about handicap stones for SGF soon.

Thank you!

Bought it and it seems good.

If the study mode can be turn on and off (ponding in lizzie term) it would be better. Or the network can still consider but human have a chance to look at the blank board and study before turn on the hot map.

I still not quite understand how variation work but it is important for studying.
