Run T-0071 rejected

· Evidence: SPRT Sequential probability ratio test. Games are played until the accumulated evidence reaches one of two bounds; then the test stops.

Hypothesis

If negamax clamps its alpha-beta window to the mate values reachable at ply [-Mate + ply, Mate - ply - 1], the fixed-depth result and mate distance are preserved, while impossible subtrees are eliminated.

translated from German. Original: Wenn negamax sein Alpha-Beta-Fenster auf die bei ply erreichbaren Mattwerte [-Mate + ply, Mate - ply - 1] klemmt, bleiben Fixed-depth-Ergebnis und Mattdistanz erhalten, während unmögliche Teilbäume entfallen.

Point estimate with the reported 95-percent half-width, per stage. The dashed line is zero. Estimates from a stopped sequential test are biased by the stopping rule; the interval is nominal.
