An Application of Genetic Algorithm to the Game of Checkers

Abstract

The difficulty of a game's Artificial Intelligence is one of the determining factors of its success or failure. To define how the machine-opponent will behave is a hard and complex task. This paper aims to present an application of the Game of Checkers that tries to solve the matter of presenting an adversary which is convincing and of a similar level to the player, using Genetic Algorithm's techniques.
