Abstract The checkers program Chinook has won the right to play a 40-game match for the World Checkers Championship against Dr. Marion Tinsley. This was earned by placing second, after Dr. Tinsley, at the 1990 U.S. National Open, the biennial event used to determine a challenger for the Championship. This is the first time a program has earned the right to contest for a human World Championship. In an exhibition match played in December 1990, Tinsley narrowly defeated Chinook 7.5 - 6.5. This paper describes the program, the research problems encountered and our solutions. Many of the techniques used for computer chess are directly applicable to computer checkers. However, the problems of building a world championship caliber program force us to address some issues that have, to date, been largely ignored by the computer chess community.

Computer Chess Name: Computer Chess Company: Atari Model #: N/A Programmers: Bob Whitehead and Larry Wagner Year: Released? No Notes: The only known prototype that has a production end label. Computer Chess is a bit of an oddity among prototypes. Once thought to simply be an early name for Video Chess, it turns out that Computer Chess is actually a slightly different game. While its not a large difference (Chess is Chess), its different enough to take notice. The first (and most obvious) difference is that the coordinates for the chess board is displayed at the bottom of screen. When a piece is selected, a picture of the piece and the coordinates of the move (in Chess notation of course) are displayed on screen. This was probably removed from the final version (Video Chess) because most players aren't familiar with Chess notation and would be confused by all the numbers and letters all over the screen. Another difference in Computer Chess is that it's played using the right joystick. I can't offer any explanation for this except that it might be a programming bug. Computer Chess also displays the difficulty level in the bottom left corner as C# (# being the difficulty level), Video Chess simply displays a large number at the top of the screen. Computer Chess also makes some psychedelic sounds to go along with the flashing colors is shows when its thinking. These were wisely taken out of Video Chess.

66. Chess Applet - Homeostatic Computer Chess Player Applet Chess Applet Homeostatic Computer Chess Player Applet. Fun to play chess applet. Uses a server to store and retrieve computed moves. http://chess.captain.at/

Chess Applet - Homeostatic Chess Player Chess applet version 5.05, compiled September 16, 2004. Play chess against your computer. Click the piece you want to move and click the square you want to move it to. By default the human is white, the machine is black. About the Chess Applet I named this computer chess applet a "homeostatic chess player" in honor of Philip K. Dick , the science fiction writer, who, in his stories, called his artificial intelligence (AI) devices "homeostatic." This online chess player is homeostatic in the sense that a well played chess game is a balance on the lines of strong moves in the chess game tree. By playing chess with this applet you are participating in an AI research experiment in distributed computation. Moves computed on your machine are sent to the chess memory server for storage and possible reuse. This is a good chess applet to play with for the following reasons: Completeness: The applet implements the complete set of chess rules, including en passant (EP) capture, pawn promotion, castling, draw by stalemate, draw by repetition, draw by lack of progress, and optional time control.

Latest version Latest version is 0.6d. Here is the Windows executable and the sourcefiles (extract all files in a "src" subdirectory and it should compile without problems on Linuxand Mac). More binaries available: Mac Here are also some bitbase files (122K zipped, includes KPK, KPPK, KBPK andKBNK for both sides). More to come in the future. Important notice : the book format has changed from version 0.6b, please download the new books from thelinks below if you have an older version! Opening books Kiwi allows you can create your own books using games from PGN databases (see readme for instructions), butyou'll probably find it easier to use one of the precompiled books below. The book file must be placed in the directorywhere the engine runs (which is tipically the same as where the program file is, though not always). Note: these books are compatible only with version 0.6b and later. For older versions, opening books must becreated from scratch.

75. Computer Chess Programs In A Glance Konrad Zuse designed the first chess program. However, the honor of being recognized as the Father of Computer Chess went to Claude Shannon. http://chess-computers.net/

Computer Chess Programs In A Glance Over the years, chess has caught the attention of programmers and scientists. Through the passage of time, computer chess served as the yardstick for analyzing the capabilities of a computer in comparison with a human. Solving the game turned out to be more difficult than they imagined. The pioneer chess program was designed by Konrad Zuse, a German inventor. However, the program was not used and unpublished until 1972. Thus, it was American Claude Shannon who was officially recognized as the "Father of Computer chess." He introduced what is known as "minimax algorithm," which involves selection of the most probable move on the premise that the other player would respond with their best move as well. The earliest chess programs utilized brute force. This is a method wherein a player extensively finds the best position in a tree of moves with the help of heuristic evaluation function. As the player takes advantage of their position based on the evaluation function, the opponent tries to reduce that advantage. The first fully-pledged computer chess was designed by Alex Bernstein and company for an IBM 704 in 1957. It investigated all possible four plies (an attempt by black or white is called a ply) in approximately 8 minutes and could beat amateur players.

How to Beat Chess Computers This guide to beating Chess computers might help you to win a bit more often against Chess computers. A few things that really help are to be able to understand how they work and think, be able to predict what sorts of things they might not spot and to understand what parts of the game a computer is better than humans at playing. HOW THE COMPUTER DECIDES WHO IS AHEAD A Chess computer assesses who is ahead in a slightly different way to how many human players would. The piece values are the same but not all humans would consider some of the other factors that a computer does. A computer uses the following sort of scoring algorithm (these figures can vary from computer to computer):- Queen = 9 points Rook = 5 points Bishop = 3 points Knight = 3 points Pawn = 1 point King = Between 41 and 200 points - this varies from computer to computer, but it needs to be large enough so that it isn't exchanged off by mistake. Doubled Pawns = -0.5 points Isolated Pawn = -0.5 points Backward Pawn = -0.5 points

78. ACM COMPUTER CHESS By Bill Wall The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) hosted the first major chess tournament for computers, the 1st United States Computer Chess Championship, http://ed-thelen.org/comp-hist/ACM-ComputerChessWall.html

"Echoed" from http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Lab/7378/acm.htm Return to home ACM COMPUTER CHESS by Bill Wall The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) hosted the first major chess tournament for computers, the 1st United States Computer Chess Championship, in September 1970 in New York. The event was organized by Dr. Monty Newborn, Professor of Computer Science at McGill University. It was won by CHESS 3.0, a chess program from Northwestern University, written by David Slate, Larry Atkin, and Gorlen. Six programs competed that year. Chess programs were played on an IBM 360/91, two IBM 360/65s, a CDC 6400 (the computer used by CHESS 3.0), a Burroughs B5500, and a Varian 620/i. The programs were CHESS 3.0, DALY CP, COKO 3, J BIIT, SCHACH, and MARSLAND CP. In 1971, CHESS 3.0 won the 2nd Annual ACM North American Computer Chess Championship in Chicago. Other programs were TECH, GENIE, DAVID, CCCP, COKO 3, SCHACH, and MR. TURK. In 1972, CHESS 3.0 won the 3rd ACM tournament in Boston. Other programs were TECH, COKO 3, OSTRICH, SCHACH, USC CP, MSU CP, and LEVERETT CP. In 1973, CHESS 3.5 won the 4th ACM tournament in Atlanta. Other programs were CHAOS, OSTRICH, TECH 2, DARTMOUTH CP, TECH, BELLE, COKO 4, GEORGIA TECH CP, THE FOX, USC CP, and CHES.
