Trappy Alpha-Beta with Two-Ply Iterative Deepening

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, an improved trappy alpha-beta (simply) algorithm, namedis proposed.is an extended version ofby introducing the two-ply iterative deepening (TPID). By applying TPID, can search more deeply and therefore find the traps hidden more deep plies in game-tree. The experimental results reflect thatindeed obtains the better chess playing performance than.
