Hello list,
I recently defended my PhD. Maybe it's of interest to some of you who
are applying MCTS to one-player or adversarial two-player domains.
You can download a revised edition (basically fewer typos than the

Hi Xavier,
I have considered this, but even level-2 Nested MCTS requires quite a
bit of thinking time. Let's say you can do 1000 playouts per second in
your game, and you want to do at least 500 playouts on levels 1 and 2
for each move decision. Assume your playouts have 50 moves on average.

problems) than on actual games, so the question is not whether a
player plays beautifully, but whether a problem is elegant and
beautiful. And they did come up with intere
Hi,
you might want to have a look at our paper on time management for MCTS:

We used Go in the beginning and then also generalized to some other
games; the most successful strategy was quite a lo
ed, a pleasure to read.
