Background. Soccer is a popular sport with a large number of players all over the world. Besides, it has considerable economic and social effects. Thus, it is necessary to find out the factors which influence soccer players’ performance. Objectives. The purpose of this investigation was to determine whether there is a significant correlation between intellectual intelligence (I.Q) (Raven’s pro...

The use of the Monte Carlo playouts as an evaluation function has proved to be a viable, general technique for searching intractable game spaces. This facilitate the use of statistical techniques like Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), but is also known to require significant processing overhead. We seek to improve the quality of information extracted from the Monte Carlo playout in three ways. Fi...

We show that the HyperPlay technique, which maintains a bag of updatable models for sampling an imperfect-information game, is more efficient than taking random samples of play sequences. Also, we demonstrate that random sampling may become impossible under the practical constraints of a game. We show the HyperPlay sample can become biased and not uniformly distributed across an information set...

The aim of General Game Playing (GGP) is to create intelligent agents that can automatically learn how to play many different games at an expert level without any human intervention. One of the main challenges such agents face is to automatically learn knowledge-based heuristics in real-time, whether for evaluating game positions or for search guidance. In recent years, GGP agents that use Mont...

Background: Employeeschr('39') performance is considered by managers due to its prominent role in achieving the goals of the organization and successful organizations make great efforts to identify and manage the factors affecting the performance and behavior of employees and achieve this success by providing these factors. Increase the performance of your employees (both in terms of quantity a...
