In computer Go, this issue focuses on cases where the initial move ordering is
bad. It isn't so much e
The tree built by MCTS is very unbalanced - some branches
are explored more thoroughly than others.
Tweaking the algorithm to favor the newer results might result
in an overall improvement, but it also would be subject to all
the pitfalls of partially or unevenly evaluated trees.
This is especia

Thanks for the replies!

I haven't tried it, but (with the computer chess hat on) these kind of
proposals behave pretty badly when you get into situations where your
evaluation is off and there are horizon effects. The top move drops off
