Hi Mark!


I have been following your project off and on for a year-and-a-half or so, and I have thoroughly scoured all your papers and waded through much of the code.


How much time do you devote to that project and how's it coming along? I haven't seen a new paper in a while, so I reread the ones for inspiration. Actually, I would like to develop a similar program just to say to myself, "I did it!"


The last published paper, I believe, dealt with improved opponent modeling and used neural networks as a non-real-time method of identifying opponent playing styles. It was mentioned that current CPU speeds were not able to cope with doing neural network calculations in real time.


I have read a couple books on neural networks, but have not implented them in programs of any complexity. What CPU speeds would be required to run these NNs in real time?


ThanX
