Imagine where you want to be someday. Now, how did you get there? Retrograde analysis is a style of problem solving where you work backwards from the endgame you want. It can help you win at chess -- or solve a problem in real life. At TEDYouth 2012, chess grandmaster Maurice Ashley delves into his favorite strategy.

@bluebolero1
@bluebolero1 9 років тому
Adeel Malik if you have a 4, you know a 6 would not trade and a 5 would not trade (if we assume rational persons). So a 4 wont trade rationally. Now if you have a 3, you know, that 4,5,6 dont trade. In the same manner a 2 doesnt trade. So only the 1 will trade because you will get a higher number 100%. You could trade a 2 though if you believe your counterpart is not acting rationally. And for most humans thats probably the case.

William YamYam To me this is just prediction at its best, removing all the fun from games. It's like explaining a sports game by pure physics and chemistry, over than luck, passion and willpower. Sure it's interrelated, and maybe only a matter of time before mastering it. But imagine this card problem between two "grandmasters" : the simple fact that one of them asks "I want to trade" means it has a one in hand. So why bother, it just has to say "Well, victory is yours good sir, well done." without even looking at the results, like machines. If neither of them has a one, they'll just keep their number without saying anything and see who's f*cked by probabilities. That's how I picture their chess games, that's also probably how other statistics fields like finance works. Dehumanizing things to get close to that 100% winning situation.
@randreacher6590
@randreacher6590 8 років тому
+William YamYam I disagree, i think he failed to mention that others would be playing along. He said "you and I" and repeated several times and then changed the rules by saying 4 other people (i presume) also picked up a card.
@EamonBurke
@EamonBurke 8 років тому
+William YamYam However, it has a fault. The fault is that it is possible the other person is not assuming you are purely rational. See, it's two stages away from first person conception. A person may have a 3, and hope you will trade up for a 4 or 5. Considering he's more than likely to lose with a 3, he feels behind the 8 ball and hopes you'll bite. Here's an illustration of the problem. A man is sentenced to be executed sometime next week. However, the man is told that the day he is executed will be a total surprise to him, there is no way to know in advance when he will be executed. That means that we know one thing for sure to start: that he won't be executed on Saturday. If he's not dead by Friday, he knows when it is coming. That rules out Saturday. But since we know it CANT be Saturday, there is now certainty that if he isn't killed by Thursday, he'll definitely be killed on Friday. So he can't be killed on Friday either. With Friday and Saturday ruled out, we now know that he can't be killed on Thursday, because he'd know on Wednesday that he was getting killed on Thursday. So on and so forth, and you've ruled out every day of the week. Its a paradoxical judgement. Right? Unless he is simply executed on any of the days, which would be a total surprise, something he could never have seen coming. Retrograde Analysis is a tool in the logical belt, but it can't be used for every problem. In games, this is where a person who is good but not great loses to a novice with "beginner's luck", who is simply making irrational decisions.

To the proofreading backwards comment- you can do that when drawing a portrait or very recognizable objects too. If you're drawing from a picture, you flip it upside down (and your drawing of course) and you start to see the face or objects more as shapes and shades. Lots of people are amazed at how much better (or more accurate) their drawing turned out than they thought by doing this. It's an early lesson in drawing representationally that's useful to recognize the same logic Maurice mentions with the double "the." The mind imposes preconceived ideas of a face or object rather than seeing it for a series small decisions based on shape and shade.

This really reminds me of King Solomon's phrase, already old and experienced: "Remember your Creator in the days of your youth, before the days of trouble come and the years approach when you will say, 'I find no pleasure in them' ". Even with many warnings and signs, not realizing the existence of the Creator and living as if he doesn't exist seems to be the biggest mistake of people. Perhaps if they could come to the end and understand what Solomon said, they would seek to know Jesus Christ deeply, and everything He did for us, as He came from heaven, served men, performed many signs and miracles, and was killed for our sins, loving us to the point of dying on a cross, that we might have life. And by the power of the Creator, he rose on the third day, and is seated at His right hand. Perhaps with Solomon's warning, you will understand how incredible God's love is and how he loves you personally, to the point of giving his own life for you.

I don't think you can see through the end game. It is not feasible. However, when you play chess, you need to pay attention to your end game pawn structure. One pawn structure with even rows is more preferable than equal, but with double pawns or stand alone pawns. This helps to ultimately win. You steer the game move by move to worsen your opponents position and then promote a pawn. GM Karpov was a big influencer in this strategy.

@watteau6646
@watteau6646 4 роки тому
I used to go over my chess losses using what I called "backtrack analysis". I would first ask myself why I resigned. Let's say it was material loss (instead of horrible position). Then why did I lose material? Because too much pressure on the b-pawn. Why too much pressure? Because I traded the c-pawn, isolating it. So then I would find the original "mistakes" (such as trading the c-pawn) in my games that led to the pressure and bad moves. That was organic and helpful. There are only 2 problems with this technique: One is that it is not necessarily the pressure or temporary loss of material which was the mistake, but how I handled it (often a strong computer thought nothing wrong with the "mistake" move--the real mistake was what I did afterwards). The other is that it does not necessarily tell you how to play the position, or to find the right move, only that the move you chose was bad. Chess is hard.

It's 50/50 to trade or not ,rationally. GM said if you trade you are gonna lose money, I didn't understand tht part with number 3 ?plz explain if someone understood more correctly than me. But considering human Psychology, If the person get 1 he/she's gonna think and stare probably more before trading to give you an impression they haven't got 1😂.

if they double everyday, it means that from the 59th to the 60th they doubled too. If it is full in the 60th, it was half full in the 59th :)

As far as I know josh never made it to grandmaster, Waitzkin might have been great but he never stuck with chess. Maurice Ashley is a strong grandmaster and clearly a much better player.

If you know what you want in life, then you'd be working on it (presumably during your youth), and after many years of working on it you have successfully attained your goal, therefore you did not waste your time during youth. Generally most youngters dont know what they want in life therefore "not being able to see the end game".

It comes from the quote "Youth is wasted on the young". The idea is that being young is a wonderful thing, yet young people do not know how to make the best use of it. Older people have a lifetime of experience and could make better use of it. For example, I am handsome yet a bit shy about meeting new people. I am sure that in 40 years I will look back and know that I should have been more outgoing and taken better advantage of my youthful looks.

Yea well actually it's both; magicians use this type of trickery, too. They want you to concentrate on something else while they are doing something somewhere else. It's great ability to concentrate on more important things but it can be used against you.
@Ricardo7250
@Ricardo7250 4 роки тому
What do you mean? Magicians will work with your intuition and reactions while they are doing the trick, that would be the equivalent of you reading a text that passes through the screen without having time for any type of different reading or analysis (if you are seeing it for the first time). Also, many magical tricks are incredibly hard to figure out even with mutiple viewings and different types of analysis, so I'm not sure you picked a good example.
