Zusammenfassung
We present the General Game Playing system Centurio. Centurio is a Java-based player featuring different strategies based on Monte Carlo Tree Search extended by techniques borrowed from Upper Confidence bounds applied to Trees as well as Answer Set Programming (for single-player games). Centurio’s Monte Carlo Tree Search is accomplished in a massively parallel way by means of multi-threading as well as cluster-computing. Another major feature of Centurio is its compilation of game descriptions, states, and state manipulations into Java, yielding an edge over existing Prolog-based approaches. Centurio is open source software freely available via the web.
