I don't understand what you are saying here. Here is what I THINK you are saying ...
simple MC with all as first beats "standard" UCT at 19x19 go. Is that what you mean? My experience with simple MC is that it does beat UCT at really fast time controls in 9x9 and I believe, although I haven't tested it, that simple MC (with all-as-first) will be superior at 19x19 until you reach some fairly high number of play-outs. In the 24 hour tournament I didn't use my MC program for a couple of reasons, one of them was my concern about the memory requirements and the other was that it wasn't clear to me that it would play stronger. I felt that simple MC might be in it's sweet spot even though it's not scalable beyond a certain point. However, I have no hard evidence - it was just a "hunch" and I did no studies as it was a last minute decision to enter the tournament. - Don On Sun, 2007-01-28 at 23:49 +0100, Łukasz Lew wrote: > Try simple MC with all as first :) > I guess it beat any UCT totally. > ( one playout here will be as 200-300 in UCT) _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list [email protected] http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
