Run T-0248 rejected

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

Hypothesis

During search, non-tactical PV Principal variation: the line of best moves the search currently expects. moves receiving an extension are buffered. After history updates, a history penalty scaled by depth is applied to each of these buffered moves that did not turn out to be the best move. This modification is expected to increase playing strength.

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.
