Komputer - an AI for Checkers
For the website http://gamesbyemail.com/Games/Checkers#Preview by Scott Nesin, to play the game Checkers, versus a computer opponent, under the game Preview tab. If you visit, be sure to check out GBE homepage, which has clones of games like Risk and Diplomacy, as well as Checkers, Chess, and many indie titles.
This is the first draft for a MCTS-PUCT* based AI agent that may be applied to more games in the future.
* (Stands for Monte Carlo Tree Search with Predictive Upper Confidence bounds for Trees - made famous as part of the AlphaZero algorithm, although this version uses a far less complex crafted heuristic for Checkers rather than a neural network, although net versions have been trained and may come later.)
