i think that the prediction rate would be strongly correlated to the style 
of the game (but only from fuseki to early midgame). i suspect that the 
prediction rate could give one some clue as to the style of the game. also 
reordering the moves during this time period by their nearness to a corner 
and noticing how well the predictor did might give some clues to the game 
style.
