Yes. I use Sylvain's fpu and decrease it a little before starting a simulation, say, fpu *= 0.99. This is very simple and fast. For detailed info, you can read my implementation of PMCTS (parallel MCTS) submitted to GPW 2007. Though it's written in Japanese, pseudo code are in English and abstract and captions are written in both. http://www.geocities.jp/hideki_katoh/publications/gpw2007/gpw07-private.pdf If you have any trouble on downloading or reading, please let me know.
