  1. SAL: A Game Learning Machine Joel Paulson & Brian Lanners

  2. Introduction • Why AI game playing? • Why AI game learning? • SAL (Michael Gherrity, 1993) • Search and Learning

  3. Consistency Search • Basic Concept • Reasons for Use • Allows for Errors in Evaluation Function • Pathological Games

  4. Procedure • Consistent Positions • Evaluation of a position is equal to its minimax value • Inconsistent Positions • Identifying and Correcting Errors

  5. General Example • If B is inconsistent, then one of the evaluations of B, D, or E is incorrect

  6. Consistency Search in Play

  7. Organization of SAL • Game Independent Kernel • Consistency Search Algorithm • Evaluation Functions • Game Specific Move Generator • Incorporates rules of game • Three Subroutines: MoveGenerator, MakeMove, EndOfGame

  8. Features • Used as input for Neural Network • Feature Discovery Problem • Features in SAL

  9. Neural Networks • SAL uses features for Input • Weights altered following each game using Temporal Difference Learning

  10. Performance of SAL • Tic-Tac-Toe • Connect Four • Chess
