Funded Activity Summary

Playing and Solving General Games. Constructing rational agents for general dynamic decision problems is a long-standing open Artificial Intelligence challenge. An important milestone is to construct artificial agents that can learn and play new games well (universal playing agents). Specialised artificial intelligence systems are increasingly successful in domains such as Chess, Go, and Poker. The project aims to develop the theoretical and practical foundations of universal playing agents through a mathematical study of algorithms and heuristics for specific games. This project aims to significantly bridge the gap from efficient specialised players to high performance rational agents.
