I know why chokes are missing in Skynet's analysis. The algorithm finds regions first, then tries to narrow down where to choke should go between regions. The missing chokes are from missing regions - compared to BWTA's results.
These images are visualizations constructed by taking the number of adjacent tiles that have a different nearest obstacle. The colors start off deep blue for 0 and move up towards red. Pink circles are drawn at detected region centers. Compare these images with the chokes detected in my last post.
You can see from the Orbital relay image that there are only 4 regions in the center ring, hence only 4 choke points dividing it, while BWTA must have found 8 regions.
On Python it is apparent that the top left region has not been detected, explaining the lack of a choke there.
On Tau Cross we see that there can be a choke point for every land path between two adjacent regions.
The lack of a bottom choke in the center area of Lost Temple is due to there only being one region center detected at the very bottom instead of in the middle intersection area. The algorithm decided to place the single choke a bit further south of the bottom entrance.
Adjusting the thresholds for what is considered a region will probably fix this issue. I am going to try to match BWTA's output.
