So, in battle mode, you get 30 sec to scramble. In training mode, with an "algorithmic scramble", I get 59 seconds to scramble AND to inspect. As soon as I have successfully scrambled, it switches the description to "Inspecting", but continues to count down the remaining time. When it reaches...
Here is an area that smart cube technology could help. Mate up a mat timer to a smart cube that only detects when a cube is solved (i.e. don’t use the smart cube for scrambling) If the cuber hits the mat before the cube is solved, it registers a DQ.
There is a new paper on this topic, published 15 July 2019 in Nature Machine Intelligence by Agostinelli, McAleer, Shmakov, and Baldi
"Solving the Rubik's cube with deep reinforcement learning and search". It describes DeepCubeA, which I gather is an upgrade to DeepCube. The project is...
I've been training using only distance-20 scrambles from cube20.org on the theory that this is better practice than random scrambles from the various scramble generators (tnoodle, cstimer, etc.) available on line since the scrambles will all be the same (and highest) degree of difficulty...
