General Board Geometry
Cameron Browne, Éric Piette, Matthew Stephenson +1
Game boards are described in the Ludii general game system by their underlying graphs, based on tiling, shape and graph operators, with the automatic detection of important propert…
Optimised Playout Implementations for the Ludii General Game System
Dennis J. N. J. Soemers, Éric Piette, Matthew Stephenson +1
This paper describes three different optimised implementations of playouts, as commonly used by game-playing algorithms such as Monte-Carlo Tree Search. Each of the optimised imple…
Automatic Generation of Board Game Manuals
Matthew Stephenson, Eric Piette, Dennis J. N. J. Soemers +1
In this paper we present a process for automatically generating manuals for board games within the Ludii general game system. This process requires many different sub-tasks to be a…
General Board Game Concepts
Éric Piette, Matthew Stephenson, Dennis J. N. J. Soemers +1
Many games often share common ideas or aspects between them, such as their rules, controls, or playing area. However, in the context of General Game Playing (GGP) for board games,…
General Game Heuristic Prediction Based on Ludeme Descriptions
Matthew Stephenson, Dennis J. N. J. Soemers, Eric Piette +1
This paper investigates the performance of different general-game-playing heuristics for games in the Ludii general game system. Based on these results, we train several regression…
Transfer of Fully Convolutional Policy-Value Networks Between Games and Game Variants
Dennis J. N. J. Soemers, Vegard Mella, Eric Piette +3
In this paper, we use fully convolutional architectures in AlphaZero-like self-play training setups to facilitate transfer between variants of board games as well as distinct games…
