Recently, Monte-Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) has advanced the field of computer Go substantially. In the game of Lines of Action (LOA), which has been dominated in the past by αβ, M...
We experimented a simple yet powerful optimization for Monte-Carlo Go tree search. It consists in dealing appropriately with strings that have two liberties. The heuristic is cont...
Abstract. A major task in evolutionary biology is to determine the ancestral relationships among the known species, a process generally referred as phylogenetic reconstruction. In ...
Monte Carlo Tree Search has given computer go a significant boost in strength the past few years, but progress seems to have slowed, and once again we have to ask ourselves how can...
Abstract--Parallelizing Monte-Carlo tree search has been considered to be a way to improve the strength of computer Go programs. In this paper, we analyze the performance of two ro...
