Abstract:Let each leaf in a bi-valued game tree have the same probability PO of being labeled a WIN. Define a search algorithm D for a bi-valued game tree T to be directed if D consists of searching by adhering to a predetermined ordering of the T leaves of T, an ordering which is independent both of P 0 and of the assignment of WINS and LOSSes to the leaves of T. The following theorems are established for an arbitrary bi-valued game tree T: (i) An optimal search algorithm for T has a piecewise polynomial cost function… Show more
