Mark+Levene

a British professor of computer science and member of the Information Management and Web Technologies Group at the School of Computer Science and Information Systems, [|Birkbeck College, University of London]. He published several papers concerning various topics of computer chess. || toc =Move Choices= Along with Judit Bar-Ilan, Mark Levene published on move choices of chess engines, and compared typical opening move choices made by humans and engines using [|nonparametric association measures], a weighted version of [|Spearman's rank correlation coefficients], and the [|Jensen-Shannon divergence] (JSD) nonparametric measure, which allows to measure the similarity between two distributions.

=Congruent Modulo Bitboards= While Fenner's and Levene's 2008 paper about Congruent Modulo Bitboards provides great mathematical insights in [|Congruent Modulo] arithmetic, their final conclusion in comparison with Hashing Dictionaries, Rotated Bitboards and Magic Bitboards was criticized due to the obvious comparison with Kindergarten Bitboards.
