چکیده

We propose an opponent modeling approach for nolimit Texas hold-em poker that starts from a (learned) prior, i.e., general expectations about opponent behavior and learns a relational regression tree-function that adapts these priors to specific opponents. An important asset is that this approach can learn from incomplete information (i.e. without knowing all players’ hands in training games).

Opponent Modeling in Poker

In recent years much progress has been made on computer gameplay in games of complete information such as chess and go. Computers have surpassed the ability of top chess players and are well on their way to doing so at Go. Games of incomplete information, on the other hand, are far less studied. Despite significant financial incentives, computerized poker players still perform at a level well b...

Opponent Modelling and Search in Poker

Poker is a challenging domain that contains both elements of chance and imperfect information. Though progress has been made in the domain, there is still one major stumbling block on the way to creating a world-class calibre computer player. This is the task of learning how an opponent plays (i.e., opponent modelling) and subsequently coming up with a counter-strategy that can exploit that inf...

Integrating Opponent Models with Monte-Carlo Tree Search in Poker

In this paper we apply a Monte-Carlo Tree Search implementation that is boosted with domain knowledge to the game of poker. More specifically, we integrate an opponent model in the Monte-Carlo Tree Search algorithm to produce a strong poker playing program. Opponent models allow the search algorithm to focus on relevant parts of the game-tree. We use an opponent modelling approach that starts f...

Identifying Features for Bluff Detection in No-Limit Texas Hold'em

Abstract Poker is increasingly becoming an area of inter-Poker is increasingly becoming an area of interest in AI research, partly because of the complex qualities it exhibits which are absent from more traditionally studied games, such as chess. One of the most difficult but also most important aspects of poker is the need to infer information about your opponent while also handling his attemp...

Algorithms for Evolving No-Limit Texas Hold'em Poker Playing Agents

Computers have difficulty learning how to play Texas Hold’em Poker. The game contains a high degree of stochasticity, hidden information, and opponents that are deliberately trying to mis-represent their current state. Poker has a much larger game space than classic parlour games such as Chess and Backgammon. Evolutionary methods have been shown to find relatively good results in large state sp...
