This article presents the results of an empirical experiment designed to gain insight into what is the effect of the minimax algorithm on the evaluation function. The experiment’...
Neural networks were evolved through genetic algorithms to focus minimax search in the game of Othello. At each level of the search tree, the focus networks decide which moves are...
It is known that bounds on the minimax values of nodes in a game tree can be used to reduce the computational complexity of minimax search for two-player games. We describe a very...
: We present a new algorithm for selective search by iterative expansion of leaf nodes. The algorithm reasons with leaf evaluations in a way that leads to high confidence in the c...
