چکیده
An effective program created to play the worldwide famous crossword game SCRABBLE. It uses an efficient data structure that allows fast moves searching possible words trough the lexicon, while an heuristic function determinates the best word to be played, by means of probabilities and sensible considerations. Here is considered the two players version of the game.

New Artificial Intelligence Modeling for the Photocatalytic Removal of C.I. Acid Yellow 23 in Wastwater
This paper proposes two methods to predict the efficiency of photochemical removal of AY23 by UV/Ag-TiO$_{2}$ process. In this work the potential of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) and imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA) modeling approaches are presented to forecast the photocatalytic removal of AY23 in the presence of Ag-TiO$_{2}$ nanoparticles prepared under desired conditions. To v...
متن کاملThis is your brain on Scrabble: Neural correlates of visual word recognition in competitive Scrabble players as measured during task and resting-state
Competitive Scrabble players devote considerable time to studying words and practicing Scrabble-related skills (e.g., anagramming). This training is associated with extraordinary performance in lexical decision, the standard visual word recognition task (Hargreaves, Pexman, Zdrazilova & Sargious, 2012). In the present study we investigated the neural consequences of this lexical expertise. Usin...
متن کاملOpponent Modeling in Scrabble
Computers have already eclipsed the level of human play in competitive Scrabble, but there remains room for improvement. In particular, there is much to be gained by incorporating information about the opponent’s tiles into the decision-making process. In this work, we quantify the value of knowing what letters the opponent has. We use observations from previous plays to predict what tiles our ...
متن کاملTesting the Limits of Skill Transfer for Scrabble Experts in Behavior and Brain
We investigated transfer of the skills developed by competitive Scrabble players. Previous studies reported superior performance for Scrabble experts on the lexical decision task (LDT), suggesting near transfer of Scrabble skills. Here we investigated the potential for far transfer to a symbol decision task (SDT); in particular, transfer of enhanced long-term working memory for vertically prese...
متن کاملA Scrabble Crossword Game Playing Program
A program that plays the SCRABBLE Crossword Game has oeen designed and implemented in SIMULA 67 on a DECSystem-10 and in Pascal on a CYBER 173. The heart of the design is the data struc- t u r e for the lexicon and the algorithm for searching i t. The lexicon is represented as a l e t t e r table, or t r i e using a canonical ordering of the letter s in the words rather than the o r i g i n a...
