Product Description

内容説明

The text presents results of computer-chess research in the areas of selective forward pruning, the efficient application of game-theoretical knowledge, and the behaviour of the search at increasing depths. It shows how to make sophisticated game-tree searchers more scalable at ever higher depths. Throughout the whole book, the high-speed and master-strength chess program, "DarkThought" serves as a realistic test vehicle to conduct numerous experiments at unprecedented search depths. The extensive experimental evaluations provide convincing empirical evidence for the practical usefulness of the presented techniques.

5.0 out of 5 stars コンピュータチェスの探索アルゴリズムの偉大なる入門書, 2003/9/17
世間で多く信じられているように、コンピュータチェスの方式は単なる全幅探索方式である、*わけではない*。

実際には、末端ノードに近いところでは指し手の性質と評価値を利用した枝刈りの手法(Futility Pruning)が行われていたり、Null Moveと呼ばれる、いったんパスを行ってみて、それで十分にその局面の評価が高いならば実際に指し手を読む必要はない、などのソフトな枝刈りの手法が広く行われている。

この本は、それらの広く行われている方法に対して、さらに筆者の拡張案を適用した場合について、同じ深さの読みでの探索ノード数、問題集に対する正答数などを統計的に紹介している。

インターネット上で筆者のいくつかの論文をあたれば、同様の内容を探すことは十分に可能だと思うが、この本ではNegaMaxといった最も単純なアルゴリズムから、αβ、PVS、QuiscenceSearchと言った(比較的)『進んだアルゴリズム』までを序章で擬似ソースコードとして説明しており、コンピュータチェス、すなわちゲームにおける探索のアルゴリズムの入門としての価値ァ?十分に高い。

実際に精読すると、統計の数には圧倒される。これだけの統計をもとにしないと、アルゴリズムの評価は行えないと自戒する次第である。
