Searching for Chess

Chess programs have three major components: move generation, search, and evaluation. All components are important, although evaluation with its quiescence analysis is the part which makes each program's play unique. The speed of a chess program is a function of its move generation cost, the complexity of the position under study and the brevity of its evaluation. More important, however, is the...

Multilinear Algebra and Chess Endgames

This article has three chief aims: (1) To show the wide utility of multilinear algebraic formalism for high-performance computing. (2) To describe an application of this formalism in the analysis of chess endgames, and results obtained thereby that would have been impossible to compute using earlier techniques, including a win requiring a record 243 moves. (3) To contribute to the study of the ...

Plays, Values, Analysis and The Complexity of Chinese Chess

Chinese Chess (Xiangqi) and Backgammon evolved from an ancient Chinese game called Liubo that was invented some 3,500 years ago [10, pp. 3–11].
