Darkforest is a computer Go program developed by Facebook that used deep learning techniques, including convolutional neural networks. Later versions combined neural-network evaluation with Monte Carlo tree search to improve game-playing performance.
A computer go program developed by Facebook, based on deep learning techniques using a convolutional neural network. Its updated version Darkfores2 combines the techniques of its predecessor with Monte Carlo tree search. The MCTS effectively takes tree search methods commonly seen in computer chess programs and randomizes them. With the update, the system is known as Darkfmcts3.
