It runs 3200 playouts/s from an empty 19x19 board on an > i7-4790K (single threaded and using large patterns). With this setting, > it plays about even with gnugo on 19x19 (winrate 57 % +/- 2.5% measured > on 400 games) at an average speed of 400 seconds per game (about 3.3 > sec/move). > > The development is done on Linux but the goal is to keep the code portable. > Michi-c comes with everything included. The only requirements are : > - a C compiler with the standard C library to build the gtp engine, > - gogui (http://gogui.sourceforge.net) to use the engine confortably if > gogui is supported on your system. > > The code for the MCTS tree search and the playout policy is about 1000 > lines of C (20 % of the total). > > Michi-c can be downloaded at https://github.com/db3108/michi-c2. It is > distributed under the MIT license. > > Thanks to Horace Ho, Andreas Pearson, Eric Steinmetz and J.Kartz who > have provided feedback and/or corrections about portability issues of > earlier versions with IOS (iphone 6), Windows 32 bits system with > Microsoft Visual Studio and MAC OS X. > > And of course, many thanks to Petr Baudis for having published the > michi.py code and setting up the goals for this project. > > Denis > _______________________________________________ > Computer-go mailing list > Computer-go@computer-go.org > http://computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go _______________________________________________ Computer-go mailing list Computer-go@computer-go.org http://computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go
