I hate to keep calling this MC-UCT because many programs do not use
UCT so until we come up with better terminology I'm going to call it
MC-BFS for Monte Carlo with Best First Search.
I think "Monte Carlo Tree Search" is a good name. The University of
Maastricht people consistently call it MCTS in their papers. I like it
much better than MC-UCT, or UCT-like. MC-BFS has the merit of being a
little more precise, and maybe would exclude alpha-beta with MC
evaluation. But it sounds a little complicated to me. So I'd vote for
MCTS.
Yes, of course. I had forgotten about that term, but it fits
perfectly. It's ok that MCTS is a little more general since the
whole idea is to find a term to use when generalizing. Certainly
alpha/beta is related. People will distinguish when it's needed.
