What is DeepEsper

DeepEsper is a computer go program developed by SkyHobbit Go club. This program is not a go game but a logic to play go. It is aimed to elucidate what is win. In addition, we are also aiming for a Go program that humans feel pleasing and enjoyable, as well as a Go program to support improvement of human skill.

We continue to expand based on programs created by participating in Computer Go training seminars held at the University of Electro-Communications in 2015. We expand the sample program of the course, so DeepEsper is influenced by the Go program "Aya".

The program source code and executable file are not opened as of 2017 now. We do not distribute or sell.
