Monte-Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) is a successful approach for improving the performance of game-playing programs. This paper presents the Accelerated UCT algorithm, which overcomes a weakness of MCTS caused by deceptive structures which often appear in game tree search. It consists in using a new backup operator that assigns higher weights to recently visited actions, and lower weights to actions that have not been visited for a long time. Results in Othello, Havannah, and Go show that Accelerated UCT is not only more effective than previous approaches but also improves the strength of F

, which is one of the best computer Go programs.
