A Small Go Board Study of Metric and Dimensional Evaluation Functions

چکیده

The difficulty to write successful 19x19 go programs lies not only in the combinatorial complexity of go but also in the complexity of designing a good evaluation function containing a lot of knowledge. Leaving these obstacles aside, this paper defines very-little-knowledge evaluation functions used by programs playing on very small boards. The evaluation functions are based on two mathematical tools, distance and dimension, and not on domaindependent knowledge. After a qualitative assessment of each evaluation function, we built several programs playing on 4x4 boards by using tree search associated with these evaluation functions. We set up an experiment to select the best programs and identify the relevant features of these evaluation functions. Thanks to the results obtained by these very-little-knowledge-based programs, we can foresee the usefulness of each evaluation function.

Convexity and Geodesic Metric Spaces

In this paper, we first present a preliminary study on metric segments and geodesics in metric spaces. Then we recall the concept of d-convexity of sets and functions in the sense of Menger and study some properties of d-convex sets and d-convex functions as well as extreme points and faces of d-convex sets in normed spaces. Finally we study the continuity of d-convex functions in geodesic metr...

Composite Kernel Optimization in Semi-Supervised Metric

Machine-learning solutions to classification, clustering and matching problems critically depend on the adopted metric, which in the past was selected heuristically. In the last decade, it has been demonstrated that an appropriate metric can be learnt from data, resulting in superior performance as compared with traditional metrics. This has recently stimulated a considerable interest in the to...

A CHARACTERIZATION FOR METRIC TWO-DIMENSIONAL GRAPHS AND THEIR ENUMERATION

‎The textit{metric dimension} of a connected graph $G$ is the minimum number of vertices in a subset $B$ of $G$ such that all other vertices are uniquely determined by their distances to the vertices in $B$‎. ‎In this case‎, ‎$B$ is called a textit{metric basis} for $G$‎. ‎The textit{basic distance} of a metric two dimensional graph $G$ is the distance between the elements of $B$‎. ‎Givi...

Fixed Point Theorems on Complete Quasi Metric Spaces Via C-class and A-Class Functions

In this paper, we present some fixed point theorems for single valued mappings on $K$-complete, $M$-complete and Symth complete quasi metric spaces. Here, for contractive condition, we consider some altering distance functions together with functions belonging to $C$-class and $A$-class. At the same time, we will consider two different type $M$ functions in contractive conditions because the qu...
