Learning in Lines of Action
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper investigates to what extent learning methods are beneficial for the Lines of Action tournament program MIA. We focus on two components of the program: (1) the evaluation function and (2) the move ordering. Using temporal difference learning the evaluation function was improved by tuning the weights. We found substantial improvements for three weights. The move ordering was enhanced by the Neural MoveMap (NMM) heuristic, which is based on learning. The two learning techniques improved both the playing quality and the speed of the program. Test results are given. The new evaluation function improved the program with a winning ratio of 1.68. The speed up of the NMM heuristic is 17 percent.

Study on gene action and combining abilities for thermotolerant ablilities of corn (Zea mays L.)
High temperature reduces the pollen viability and silk receptivity of corn resulting in poor seed set and reduced yield. Continuously increasing temperature and less frequency and distribution of rainfall coupled with usual canal–closure particularly in Pakistan have significantly been decreasing the grain yield. This problem could be overcome by developing heat tolerant maize hybrids. For this...

متن کاملEstimation of Combining Ability and Gene Action for Agro-Morphological Characters of Rapeseed (Brassica Napus L.) Using Line×Tester Mating Design
Combining ability effects were estimated for different agronomic characters in line × tester crossing program comprising 21 hybrids produced by crossing 7 lines and 3 testers. Parents and hybrids differed significantly for general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) effects, respectively. The variance due to GCA and SCA showed that gene action was predominantly additive...
