Abstract:
Amorphous carbon film with Diamond like properties is the subject of intense interest in the past one and half decade. The unusual properties of these diamond like carbon films arise from the preponderance of SP3 tetrahedral bonding of carbon in the film. Depending on the processing technique and the processing conditions used, the structure of the films can range from amorphous carbon to large grain polycrystalline diamond. These deposited amorphous carbon films, which are smooth, may find their use in optoelectronics, in dielectric films and in microelectronics. These films are found to be c

Abstract:
The subject of computer Go is an active eld under AI and has achieved much attention in research. The current state of the art computer Go im-plementations uses a game tree search approach rather than advanced heuristics. This thesis aims to bridge these two approaches and combineMonte Carlo Tree Search with heuristics to deduce if any general results can be found. The results of the thesis indicate that the performance of a combined MCTS-heuristic approach correlates strongly with performance of the heuristic. Furthermore, MCTS can be used with any heuristic to improve its performance.1

Abstract Small businesses are numerous in any country. However, we have very limited knowledge regarding their management accounting (MA) and management control systems (MCS).

Esteatosis de origen dietético: ¿La inflamación y la Oxidación actúan de forma coordinada?<br/> La respuesta metabólica hepática frente a dietas ricas en grasa y colesterol difiere en los ratones con diferentes trastornos metabólicos y carga genética (ApoE-/- y LDLr-/-). Unos responden desarrollando esteatohepatitis y aumentando la expresión de genes relacionados con la inflamación y la oxidación mientras que en otros disminuye la expresión de genes que protegen el desarrollo de esteatosis y obesidad. En humanos, también se aprecian diferencias respecto al desarrollo de esteatosis o esteatohep

Abstract:
MCDS is an autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasia disorder caused by mutations in collagen X. In most cases, mutations in collagen X result in a misfolded protein which is retained within the ER of hypertrophic chondrocytes, causing increased ER stress. It has previously been demonstrated that increased ER stress causes hypertrophic chondrocytes to de-differentiate in an attempt to avoid the stress. The altered differentiation results in reduced cell hypertrophy and impaired vascular invasion accounting for reduced bone growth. The presence of increased ER stress in hypertrophic chondrocytes is

Abstract:
In recent years an increasing focus has been placed on the development of students’ skills of critical thinking, problem solving and independent learning, throughout their time at university. There is an increasing shift towards incorporating activities which promote students’ active engagement with course materials – with the intention of promoting a deeper understanding of their chosen subject. Many tools and techniques are available that facilitate students’ transition from the passive recipient of knowledge, to a central, active actor in the learning process. One such tool, PeerWise, is an

<p>Lignin and cellulose comprise a large portion of the renewable biomass on Earth. However, substantially due to laborious course of processing, the conversion efficiency of these biomaterials to accessible biofuel is very low. Therefore, effective depolymerization and utilization of these biopolymers are requirements for environmentally friendly and sustainable energy development. In the hope of finding solutions to these biomass utilization challenges, there have been growing interests in using biodegrading metalloenzymes as active biocatalysts. However, there still remain many questions re

Title: Solving problems using MCTS Author: Dominik Malý Department: Department of theoretical informatics and mathematical logic Supervisor: RNDr. Jan Hric Supervisor's e-mail address: Jan.Hric@mff.cuni.cz Abstract: MCTS (Monte Carlo Tree Search) methods are a state-of-the-art approach to the computer solution of strategic board game Go. Because of their versatility and successfulness, these techniques show great potential for all kinds of problems. This paper aims to explore the suitability of MCTS for solving different kind of problems, specifically games of one player, like Sudoku or SameGa

Abstract:
We introduce our competitive implementation of a Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) algorithm for the board game of Go: Pachi. The software is based both on previously published methods and our original improvements. We then focus on improving the tree search performance by collecting information regarding tactical situations and game status from the Monte Carlo simulations and sharing it with and within the game tree. We propose specific methods of such sharing --- dynamic komi, criticality-based biasing, and liberty maps --- and demonstrate their positive effect. based on collected play-testing

Abstract:
Evolutionary and genetic algorithms are problem-solving methods designed according to a nature inspiration. They are used for solving hard problems that we cannot solve by any efficient specialized algorithm. The Monte Carlo method and its derivation the Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) are based on sampling and are also commonly used for too complex problems, where we are dealing with enormous memory consumption and it is impossible to perform a complete searching. The goal of this thesis is to design a general problem solving method that is built from these two completely different approaches.

博士<br>國立東華大學<br>資訊工程學系<br>99<br>Recently, Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) has become a well-known game search method, and has been successfully applied to many games. This method performs well in solving search trees with numerous branches, such as Go, Havannah, etc. Connect6 is a game involving a search tree with numerous branches, and it is also one of the sudden-death games. This thesis thus proposes a new MCTS variant related to Connect6, called two-stage MCTS. In the search architecture, the first stage focuses on Threat Space Search (TSS), which is designed to solve the sudden-death p

Game of Arimaa is an artificially created strategic board game with the purpose to be difficult for computers. A vast majority of introduced computer engines for Arimaa are based on successful approaches from chess, namely the minimax algorithm with pruning and further extensions. In this thesis we have analyzed the applicability of the so called MCTS methods in the game of Arimaa. MCTS methods are a state-of-the-art approach to the computer Go with bright prospects in other strategic games as well. We have implemented a MCTS based Arimaa engine called Akimot and adapted the MCTS techniques fo
