|| [[image:MacShogi.jpg width="322" height="344" link="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shogi"]] ||~   || **Shogi** (Japanese Chess),
a chess variant that evolved directly from [[Shatranj]], just like the western [[Chess|chess]]. It is played on 9x9 board. Compared to chess, Shogi pieces have limited mobility, but this is compensated by the fact that captured enemy pieces can be [[Piece Drop|dropped]] on the board as one's own. This leads to the wild, tactical game. Shogi has greater [[Branching Factor|branching factor]] than chess. In 2013, the best programs seem at the level of the best human professional players <ref>[[http://japandailypress.com/computer-program-defeats-five-professional-shogi-players-2227430/|Computer program defeats five professional shogi players]] by [[http://japandailypress.com/author/ida/|Ida Torres]] - [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ewdison_Then|The Japan Daily Press]], April 22, 2013</ref> <ref>[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_shogi#Denou-sen_.282013.29|Computer shogi - Computers versus humans - Denou-sen (2013) - Wikipedia]]</ref> .

Development of Shogi programs has taken slightly different route than in chess programming. The stress is on [[Pattern Recognition|pattern recognition]] and [[Selectivity|selective search]] techniques. ||
