Improved MCTS formula (ICML paper). Better than AlphaZero formula #1399

Closed habbler closed 4 years ago

habbler commented 4 years ago

https://proceedings.icml.cc/static/paper_files/icml/2020/3655-Paper.pdf describes MCTS formula from scratch. Shows that AlphaZero formula is an approximation to this.

Demonstrates a better formula, particular when branching factors are low.

Best regards, Rene.
