Run T-0114 rejected

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

Hypothesis

A static evaluation correction history, refreshed per search and keyed by side to move and king, knight, and bishop hash keys, learns from informative node results that are not in check, not mate, have a quiet best move, and provide a bound in the informative direction. It adds up to 256 cp to static eval for all cutoffs in negamax, while the transposition table retains the raw evaluation.

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.
