    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tic-tac-toe

    Tic-tac-toe A completed game of tic-tac-toe Other names Noughts and Crosses Xs and Os Genres Paper-and-pencil game Players 2 Setup time Minimal Playing time ~1 minute Chance None Skills Strategy, tactics, observation Tic-tac-toe (American English), noughts and crosses (Commonwealth English), or Xs and Os (Canadian or Irish English) is a paper-and-pencil game for two players who take turns ...

  3. Game tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_tree

    The diagram shows the first two levels, or plies, in the game tree for tic-tac-toe. The rotations and reflections of positions are equivalent, so the first player has three choices of move: in the center, at the edge, or in the corner. The second player has two choices for the reply if the first player played in the center, otherwise five choices.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_machine_learning

    Machines Playing Tic-Tac-Toe: Donald Michie creates a 'machine' consisting of 304 match boxes and beads, which uses reinforcement learning to play Tic-tac-toe (also known as noughts and crosses). [18] 1967: Nearest Neighbor: The nearest neighbour algorithm was created, which is the start of basic pattern recognition. The algorithm was used to ...

  5. Matchbox Educable Noughts and Crosses Engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matchbox_Educable_Noughts...

    This chart had drawings of tic-tac-toe game grids with various configurations of X, O, and empty squares, [4] corresponding to all possible permutations a game could go through as it progressed. [11] After removing duplicate arrangements (ones that were simply rotations or mirror images of other configurations), MENACE used 304 permutations in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breadth-first_search

    Animated example of a breadth-first search. Black: explored, grey: queued to be explored later on BFS on Maze-solving algorithm Top part of Tic-tac-toe game tree. Breadth-first search (BFS) is an algorithm for searching a tree data structure for a node that satisfies a given property.

  7. Alpha–beta pruning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha–beta_pruning

    Alpha–beta pruning is a search algorithm that seeks to decrease the number of nodes that are evaluated by the minimax algorithm in its search tree.It is an adversarial search algorithm used commonly for machine playing of two-player combinatorial games (Tic-tac-toe, Chess, Connect 4, etc.).

  8. Evaluation function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaluation_function

    An example handcrafted evaluation function for chess might look like the following: c 1 * material + c 2 * mobility + c 3 * king safety + c 4 * center control + c 5 * pawn structure + c 6 * king tropism + ... Each of the terms is a weight multiplied by a difference factor: the value of white's material or positional terms minus black's.

  9. Negamax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negamax

    An animated pedagogical example showing the plain negamax algorithm (that is, without alpha–beta pruning). The person performing the game tree search is considered to be the one that has to move first from the current state of the game (player in this case) NegaMax operates on the same game trees as those used with the minimax search ...
