Algorithm for finding optimal move

  • The translation uses the model of the opponent to fill in the opponent’s actions leaving the actions to be determined by the search algorithm.
  • The search problem is given by

    Initial state: P(S0) where S0 is the initial game state. P can be applied as the opponent may play first.

  Actions: defined as in the game by ACTIONSs.

  Successor function: RESULT′(s, a) = P(RESULT(s, a))

  Goal test: goals are terminal states

   Step cost: the cost of an action is zero.

You and Alice and Bob are considering variants of the Pokemon problem. In the opti- mization problem we are looking for the minimum set of packs, and there are multiple ways to convert it to a decision problem (you probably used the standard method of adding a threshold variable k above). Alice considers the question "Is there a collection of packs of size 5 (or less) that includes one of every card in the set?". Bob considers the question "Is there a collection of packs of size [2] (or less) that includes one of every card in the set?". Are Alice and Bob's versions of the problem NP-complete? Either way, justify your answer with a proof.
Artificial Intelligence - Adversarial Search 1. Consider the following three variants of minimax search: the simple version, alpha-beta search, anddepth-limited search, and consider the games of tic-tac-toe and chess. For the chess game, supposethat the Threefold Repetition Rule and the Fifty-Move Rule, and the similar rules if any, are notconsidered, i.e., the game will not terminate if the same position occurs multiple times. For eachcombination of minimax variant and game, answer the following question: can that minimax variantpossibly never terminate, in computing the best next move? Justify your answer.
