A Novel Machine Learning Method for Preference Identification
Azlan Iqbal
Human preference or taste within any domain is usually a difficult thing to identify or predict with high probability. In the domain of chess problem composition, the same is true.…
An Algorithm for Automatically Updating a Forsyth-Edwards Notation String Without an Array Board Representation
Azlan Iqbal
We present an algorithm that correctly updates the Forsyth-Edwards Notation (FEN) chessboard character string after any move is made without the need for an intermediary array repr…
The Effects of Quantum Randomness on a System Exhibiting Computational Creativity
Azlan Iqbal
We present experimental results on the effects of using quantum or 'truly' random numbers, as opposed to pseudorandom numbers, in a system that exhibits computational creativity (g…
Estimating Total Search Space Size for Specific Piece Sets in Chess
Azlan Iqbal
Automatic chess problem or puzzle composition typically involves generating and testing various different positions, sometimes using particular piece sets. Once a position has been…
A Computer Composes A Fabled Problem: Four Knights vs. Queen
Azlan Iqbal
We explain how the prototype automatic chess problem composer, Chesthetica, successfully composed a rare and interesting chess problem using the new Digital Synaptic Neural Substra…
The Digital Synaptic Neural Substrate: Size and Quality Matters
Azlan Iqbal
We investigate the 'Digital Synaptic Neural Substrate' (DSNS) computational creativity approach further with respect to the size and quality of images that can be used to seed the…
The Digital Synaptic Neural Substrate: A New Approach to Computational Creativity
Azlan Iqbal, Matej Guid, Simon Colton +3
We introduce a new artificial intelligence (AI) approach called, the 'Digital Synaptic Neural Substrate' (DSNS). It uses selected attributes from objects in various domains (e.g. c…
How Relevant Are Chess Composition Conventions?
Azlan Iqbal
Composition conventions are guidelines used by human composers in composing chess problems. They are particularly significant in composition tournaments. Examples include, not havi…
