I see that you have implemented your puzzle defining software here
Very good.
Your puzzle expands to SE11.6/11.6 and is BxB 6 - which is knocking on the door of higher classified puzzles...
Code: Select all
...31......9......32.....5..1856..43...4.1....64.8351.....34.61...1.8..5...65.48. ED=11.6/11.6/2.6

Its more convenient to display the puzzle in minlexsolutiongrid format [ and then all "related" puzzles can be identified. Although your prefix does this rather well....]

In fact, the prefix is the puzzle in minlex solution grid format. the grid is the output of the finder, with the tridagon in the four boxes bottom right, the box 9 having the main diagonal with one cell to clear.

For me, I have a pure tridagon if each of the 11cells of the pattern sees the 6 other digits. then, these cells have strictly the 3 digits at the start. Your PM is a pure tridagon for me. I assume that in most cases, the last cell in the main diagonal can be assigned as here.

.... This is not good news to define a cut off in the huge files produced by the tridagon finder.

SKFR with a switch off uniqueness function would have been useful as many 10.9s and lesser probably were lost as they were potentially upogradable to 11.5 when a clue was added !!
As a quick tridagon finder i used SKFR, basically anything over 11.0 and always 11.5 were potentially tridagon puzzles with BxB above 4.

I don't think that it cuts the very high ratings ( but in this field, you can always find exceptions)

I'm late on reporting this, but it seems like UR steps effect the ratings of almost all (90% ?) of mith's puzzles.

PGExplainer has a '-M' option, that disables uniqueness techniques ... to allow for rating puzzles with multiple solutions.
I had a program select 20 random puzzles from one of mith's big lists, and I rated the puzzles and thier T&E(2) extensions, with and without the '-M' option.

The results are below.
Only two of the puzzles retained thier high rating, when uniqueness techniques were allowed.

Thaks a lot blue. The tridagon field is very special, but your result could be true in other areas.

Here, so far, only “eleven” expressed an opinion on what is of interest, so I’ll try to take the view of a player.

The UR pattern is easy to spot for a player. Excluding the uniqueness rules from my rating is not something I would do. In your second list, it is clear that a simple UR changes the rating (rating 4.5)

In fact, I did not have the rating in mith’s file. I re rated all with skfr, (with the “uniqueness” rules), what can explain my surprise to see very low ratings

As a direct consequence, the cutoff in the huge files produced by the tridagon finder should be around 10.0/10.2.
So far I used 10.5 as cutoff to select puzzles of potential interest.

I’ll report in a separate post on what I experienced recently

test on the last tridagon targets

Postby champagne » Sat Jan 04, 2025 10:59 am

Having fixed several bugs, I restarted tests on potential tridagon targets.
BTW, one bug was because I limited the number of possible targets in the same solution grid to 20, without overflow control.

As a result, the output of the tridagon finder increased in size.

For the last 1073 targets, I got the following in average

97 grids per target with <=25 clues
5398 grids per target with <= 26 clues
more than 120000 grids per target with <= 27 clues
but with another bug to fix


Having applied a T&E()1 filter, I had to rate
3918 grids <=25 clues
156791 grids <= 29 clues

And with my filter at 10.5 (before blue’s post) I got

With <= 25 clues 4 grids

Code: Select all
...5......2....4..8.....9...5.63...1...4..6......1935.1...5..9...93.1..4.4..6..3.;10.5/1.2/1.2

It seems to me that limiting the finder to 25 clues is not a good option,
The 27 limit is too high to be general
The 194 “highs” with <=26 clues are attached to 26 solution grids, so one possibility to consider is to run the 27 clues finder on these grids.
Here is the list of the corresponding solution grids ranks.

Code: Select all

5472684573   2
5472686616   2

Well .... that explains alot, and Im surprized it extends so low. I had a cut off of 10.9, but surely many puzzles have gone under the bridge !!!
The problem is when you expand the puzzle, by adding clues the rating can sometimes then goes up [to >11.5] ...and so Ive always disliked uniqueness techniques of any sort ...
The T&E test picked these up, and the BxB classifier does not get fooled either ...
I re ran a few T&E3 puzzles

The fact is that maybe 90% of the activity in this forum is dedicated to the different ways to solve a puzzle.
For them a "uniqueness" rule has the same value as others.
And out of eleven, an expert player, nobody came here to tell what to do with the billions grids produced daily by the tridagon finder.

For me, the debate on uniqueness techniques is not a theoretical, but a practical one. If your work is not compatible with such techniques, don't use them, if you play on the solving side, feel free to use them.

I had no tool to filter grids on the T&E property, I wrote a T&E(1) filter and I can now clear about 90% of the finder output. This left me with still too many grids to just think of sharing them.

I think that blue reacted to this post published some days ago.

so 2932 puzzles in mith's file have a skfr ER rating 4.5 corresponding to a simple UR as hardest step.

Here some puzzles with high skfr ratings.
This is part of 5990 records resulting of all filters applied in a test on the bottom part of the min lexical catalog.
None of these solution grids are in mith's file.
the grid is the output of the tridagon finder. The prefix is the canonical name of the grid.
Maybe coloin can tell us if this is of any value.

Re: test on the last tridagon targets

but with another bug to fix


after the fix, the situation is somehow worse.
First, it was before around 1 200 000 and not 120 000
and the final count is 1 540 000 grids per target

so
the ratio 25 => 26 is 55
the ratio 26 =>27 is 285

it took one core x hour to produce the output of 13.8 GB, so the issue in definitely not the tridagon finder, but the cleaning of puzzles on criteria to define.

The target is/was SKFR 11.5 and above ... [ but now we see that many are missed because of the dratted uniqueness "blip"]
This was searching here for T&E2 BxB 6 and above and necessitated a search over 1M puzzles to find a few !

Your list includes groups of puzzles from the same grid - which expand usually to one puzzle with 30+ clues.
So essentially its possible to just rate one of these essentially equivalent puzzles. The puzzle is expanded whilst maintaining the rating ..

These Bxb > 7 did produce a few worthwhile puzzles but do get solved by eleven and others in the puzzles thread...

Those puzzles are predominantly T&E2 with BxB 3
These two are BxB 4
Code: Select all
...........2....8...9863....5763..181.37......6..5....8.1....53...1.5..7.7..8..6.## 4#
.8.........2........9863....5763..181.37......6..5......1....53...1.58.7.7..8..6.## 4#

Quite a way to go to find higher BxB !

The main problem here is that I have no tool to do the job.
The best I could do as soon as I think it is clean enough is to share the target selector and finder code

available from your compatriot denis here
although you would first need to run skfr on your big file [ one puzzle from each grid] and test anyhing above Skfr 11.3 .... the uniqueness blip means we lose downgraded puzzles

On my side, assuming skfr run, the job is over. This is part of my current process and 11.3 is a very high cutoff. The 11.5 posted are the only new that I got in my tests at that level.
I had a look at your next step. As nothing prevent from doing it directly, I assume that there is a problem with the runtime of it.

In fact, for me, skfr is already too slow and my T&E(1) step applied first saves time.
In the interactive game, I used another solver.

BTW, out of the "uniqueness" rules, I suspect other rules in the solvers to change the high ratings of a expand by singles only rule.
Take a Jellyfish, I see no easy way to prove that it would not crack a T&E(1) or more status.

I started here thoughts on how to do the "skfr" step in a better way, optimizing the T&E(1) step and running some solving steps in line with the desired selection.

solution grid 5472482993

Postby champagne » Fri Jan 10, 2025 8:39 am

The rating of the last chunks of my current test should be over by the end of this week.
I thought that this topic would be of interest for several members of the forum.
Apparently, I was wrong. So this will be for me the end of the work on the tridagon.

I’ll give as last post a summary of the high ratings out of the test, but I have first to comment on one solution grid.

Due to a wrong filter, I expected a good match in the solution grid 5472482993

Code: Select all
123456789457189632698732514264573198531968247879241356345827961716394825982615473


My filter saw it as a pure tridagon, but the test was done after “singles”.

This solution grid has many high ratings in mith’s file. Here are skfr ratings 11.6 11.7

In fact, none of these grids starts I think, with a pure tridagon <=27 clues. I checked it on several grids

The test gives the following high ratings

Far from the highest, but all pure tridagon at the start.
I already had in mind that the results should be seen as seeds for more exploration using vicinity technics or others; this was the only way to catch “degenerative tridagons”.
Here it’s clear that this is also true to catch “pure tridagon after ...”

BTW, with the usual technics, it seems to me difficult to get out of the “tridagon square” of the seed.
