Crazy Stone is a Go playing engine, developed by Rémi Coulom. It is one of the first computer Go programs to utilize a modern variant of the Monte Carlo tree search. It is part of the Computer Go effort. In January 2012 Crazy Stone was rated as 5 dan on KGS, in March 2014 as 6 dan.〔(Crazy Stone's profile ). Sensei's Library. Retrieved 2 February 2010〕 ==History== Coulom began writing Crazy Stone in July 2005, and at the outset incorporated the Monte Carlo algorithm in its design. Early versions were initially available to download as freeware from his website, albeit no longer.〔(Crazy Stone's ICGA record ). International Computer Games Association. Retrieved 2 February 2010〕 Pattern recognition and searching was added in 2006, and later that year Crazy Stone took part in its first tournament, winning a gold medal in the 9x9 competition at the 11th Computer Olympiad.〔 Coulom subsequently entered the program into the 12th Computer Olympiad the following year, winning bronze in the 9x9 and silver in the 19x19 competitions. However, Crazy Stone's most significant accomplishment was to defeat Kaori Aoba, a professional Japanese 4 dan, in an 8-stone handicap match in 2008. In doing so, the engine became the first to officially defeat an active professional in Japan with a handicap of less than nine stones. Three months later, on 12 December 2008, Crazy Stone defeated Aoba again in a 7-stone match.〔(Crazy Stone defeats Kaori Aoba ). Rémi Coulom. Retrieved 2 February 2010〕 In March 2013, Crazy Stone beat Yoshio Ishida, Japanese honorary 9-dan, in a 19×19 game with four handicap stones.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://sankei.jp.msn.com/life/news/130320/igo13032020420000-n1.htm )〕 On March 21, 2014, at the second annual Densei-sen competition, Crazy Stone defeated Norimoto Yoda, Japanese professional 9-dan, in a 19x19 game with four handicap stones by a margin of 2.5 points. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://entcog.c.ooco.jp/entcog/densei/eng/densei-2nd.html )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Crazy Stone (software)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
