I've created an #Othello #AI that can easily kick my butt. This is probably the AI I'm using in my #PICO8 entry in #AGBIC 2023.

It uses the standard #minimax #algorithm (actually #negamax) with alpha-beta pruning. No transposition tables yet (mainly because I don't yet know how they work).

It takes only a few seconds to make a move (though I made a few cutbacks to get it that fast), which will hopefully mean it's fast enough on PICO-8.

As usual, hats off to my coauthors: Jayadev Acharya, Ziteng Sun, and Himanshu Tiagy. Especially Ziteng for his indefatigable efforts and insights (the extension to the low-privacy regime in Corollary 1, for instance).

Oh, and happy to answer any questions about our work (techniques, results, what the hell is this about) you may have of course! #estimation #computationalconstraints #privacy #minimax #learning

Hello :mastodon: !
Est-ce que quelqu'un aurai connaissance d'un adoucisseur d'eau (surtout pour le calcaire) qu'il est possible de monter soit même ? #diy
Je recherche quelque chose du même genre que #minimax (sans branchement électrique) https://www.minimax.fr/ mais pas à 2000€ :D
