Temporal Difference Learning of an Othello Evaluation Function for a Small Neural Network with Shared Weights
Edward P. Manning · 2007
This paper presents an artificial neural network with shared weights, trained to play the game of Othello by self-play with temporal difference learning (TDL). The network performs as well as the champion of the CEC 2006 Othello Evaluation Function Competition. The TDL-trained network contains only 67 unique weights compared to 2113 for the champion
