Highly Stylised Drawn Animation
Abstract. In this paper we argue for our NPAR system as an effective 2D alternative to most of NPR research which is focused on frame coherent stylised rendering of 3D models. Our ...

Monte-Carlo Proof-Number Search for Computer Go
In the last decade, proof-number search and Monte-Carlo methods have successfully been applied to the combinatorial-games domain. Proof-number search is a reliable algorithm. It re...

A Skat Player Based on Monte-Carlo Simulation
We apply Monte Carlo simulation and alpha-beta search to the card game of Skat, which is similar to Bridge, but different enough to require some new algorithmic ideas besides the t...

A Retrograde Approximation Algorithm for One-Player Can't Stop
Abstract. A one-player, finite, probabilistic game with perfect information can be presented as a bipartite graph. For one-player Can't Stop, the graph is cyclic and the chall...

Computing Proper Equilibria of Zero-Sum Games
We show that a proper equilibrium of a matrix game can be found in polynomial time by solving a linear (in the number of pure strategies of the two players) number of linear progra...
