[Computer-go] Fwd: News on Tromp-Cook ?

[Aja]

Hi Fuming,

C*RAVE+(1-C)*UCT

C is computed dynamically in search, but not set to a fixed value. Maybe you mean UCT_C,

UCT=UCT_mean+UCT_C*exploration_term

What Petr and Olivier do, I think, is set UCT_C to 0, to disable the exploration_term, not the weight of RAVE.

    Most of the current strong programs are using UCT combined with RAVE (a kind of AMAF). The formula is like this (there are many variants),
    Â 
    C*RAVE+(1-C)*UCT

  This has been my understanding. However, I am surprized to find out that people have been setting C close to one, according to Petr and Oliver's postings, which is essentially AMAF. MF apparently is doing something different.
