I am testing romi and just want to make sure she is learning. The learn.dat file does seem to get modified everytime a game finishes, but the file size has not got any bigger. I am running romi against about 5 opponents. How much bigger should the file get after , say, 20 games.
best

Re: Help with romi learn file
Hi Joseph,
Romi grows the learn file by 10,000 entries at a time. Each time the last block is used up. Twenty games is not enough to grow it.
I look forward to seeing some learning data.
The most impressive test that I ever ran, to test Romi's learning ability was against Glaurung 1.21. In the first of 20 rounds of the Nunn10 positions Romi scored 6%. In the 20th and final round Romi scored 95%! The resulting chart was a linear progression from 6% to 95% with only a few small 'ziggies' in the middle.

The Nunn25 positions were used. Fifty games per round.

Re: Help with romi learn file
I am testing romi in a single position. My plan is to build up a huge learning file, then test her at longer time controls, once with the learning file, and once without. I'ld like to see what kind of difference it makes.
I am finding that you've got to keep an eye on romi and give her new oponents, because she sometimes discovers a line against a particular oponent that always wins and seh plays it relentlessly.
Here are some early results. I already pulled aristarch out of the tourniment, because romi was makign 40 moves without using any time and slaughtering it.
It has started to beat list and sos everytime
1: Romichess 23.0/51 ·········
2: Rybkav2.3.2a.w32 6.5/8 1=1111==
2: Slow 6.5/8 11111===
4: Ruffian_210 5.0/9 11=10=010
5: Yace Paderborn 4.5/9 01011=0==
5: List512 4.5/9 =01111000
7: SOS 5.1 for Arena 1.0/8 ==000000
It looks like SOS is about to break its losing streak. I think what happens is Romi uses line X against sos, but because it loses to other engines, romi stops using the line against sos.
