Computers and Octi: Report from the 2001 Tournament

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Computers are strong players of many strategy games, but in some games, namely Go, success has been more elusive. Thus, it may be fruitful to explore games with intermediate complexity. Octi is such a game.I describe the game of Octi, report results from the 2001 Computer Octi Tournament, and explain why Octi may be a useful domain for research in game AI.
