A New Look at the Tayler by David Kane
A New Look at the Tayler by David kane I: Introduction The Tayler Variation (aka the Tayler Opening) is a line that has been unjustly neglected, in my view. The line is of surprisingly recent vintage though it is often confused with the Inverted Hungarian (or Inverted Hanham Defense), a line which shares the same opening moves: 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Be2: The Inverted Hungarian is an old opening, dating back to the 1860ʼs, at least. Tartakower played it a few times in the 1920ʼs with mixed results, using the continuation, 3...Nf6 4. d3: a rather unenterprising setup for White. In 1981 British player, John Tayler (see biographical note), published an article in the British publication Chess (vol. 46) on a line he had developed stemming from the sharp 4. d4!?. This is a move which apparently no one had thought to play before, and one that transforms the sedate Inverted Hungarian into something else altogether. Technically, it is really the Tayler Variation to the Inverted Hungarian Defense rather than the Tayler Opening, though through usage, the terms are interchangeable for all practical purposes. As has been so often the case when it comes to unorthodox lines, I first heard of this opening via Mike Basman when he published a cassette on it back in the early 80ʼs (still available through audiochess.com). Tayler 2 The line stirred some interest at the time but gradually seems to have been forgotten. The final nail in the coffin was probably some light analysis published by Eric Schiller in Gambit Chess Openings (and elsewhere) where he dismisses the line primarily due to his loss in the game Schiller-Martinovsky, Chicago 1986. -
Draft – Not for Circulation
A Gross Miscarriage of Justice in Computer Chess by Dr. Søren Riis Introduction In June 2011 it was widely reported in the global media that the International Computer Games Association (ICGA) had found chess programmer International Master Vasik Rajlich in breach of the ICGA‟s annual World Computer Chess Championship (WCCC) tournament rule related to program originality. In the ICGA‟s accompanying report it was asserted that Rajlich‟s chess program Rybka contained “plagiarized” code from Fruit, a program authored by Fabien Letouzey of France. Some of the headlines reporting the charges and ruling in the media were “Computer Chess Champion Caught Injecting Performance-Enhancing Code”, “Computer Chess Reels from Biggest Sporting Scandal Since Ben Johnson” and “Czech Mate, Mr. Cheat”, accompanied by a photo of Rajlich and his wife at their wedding. In response, Rajlich claimed complete innocence and made it clear that he found the ICGA‟s investigatory process and conclusions to be biased and unprofessional, and the charges baseless and unworthy. He refused to be drawn into a protracted dispute with his accusers or mount a comprehensive defense. This article re-examines the case. With the support of an extensive technical report by Ed Schröder, author of chess program Rebel (World Computer Chess champion in 1991 and 1992) as well as support in the form of unpublished notes from chess programmer Sven Schüle, I argue that the ICGA‟s findings were misleading and its ruling lacked any sense of proportion. The purpose of this paper is to defend the reputation of Vasik Rajlich, whose innovative and influential program Rybka was in the vanguard of a mid-decade paradigm change within the computer chess community. -

A Survey of Monte Carlo Tree Search Methods
IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTATIONAL INTELLIGENCE AND AI IN GAMES, VOL. 4, NO. 1, MARCH 2012 1 A Survey of Monte Carlo Tree Search Methods Cameron Browne, Member, IEEE, Edward Powley, Member, IEEE, Daniel Whitehouse, Member, IEEE, Simon Lucas, Senior Member, IEEE, Peter I. Cowling, Member, IEEE, Philipp Rohlfshagen, Stephen Tavener, Diego Perez, Spyridon Samothrakis and Simon Colton Abstract—Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) is a recently proposed search method that combines the precision of tree search with the generality of random sampling. It has received considerable interest due to its spectacular success in the difficult problem of computer Go, but has also proved beneficial in a range of other domains. This paper is a survey of the literature to date, intended to provide a snapshot of the state of the art after the first five years of MCTS research. We outline the core algorithm’s derivation, impart some structure on the many variations and enhancements that have been proposed, and summarise the results from the key game and non-game domains to which MCTS methods have been applied. A number of open research questions indicate that the field is ripe for future work. Index Terms—Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), Upper Confidence Bounds (UCB), Upper Confidence Bounds for Trees (UCT), Bandit-based methods, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Game search, Computer Go. F 1 INTRODUCTION ONTE Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) is a method for M finding optimal decisions in a given domain by taking random samples in the decision space and build- ing a search tree according to the results. It has already had a profound impact on Artificial Intelligence (AI) approaches for domains that can be represented as trees of sequential decisions, particularly games and planning problems. -

Move Similarity Analysis in Chess Programs
Move similarity analysis in chess programs D. Dailey, A. Hair, M. Watkins Abstract In June 2011, the International Computer Games Association (ICGA) disqual- ified Vasik Rajlich and his Rybka chess program for plagiarism and breaking their rules on originality in their events from 2006-10. One primary basis for this came from a painstaking code comparison, using the source code of Fruit and the object code of Rybka, which found the selection of evaluation features in the programs to be almost the same, much more than expected by chance. In his brief defense, Rajlich indicated his opinion that move similarity testing was a superior method of detecting misappropriated entries. Later commentary by both Rajlich and his defenders reiterated the same, and indeed the ICGA Rules themselves specify move similarity as an example reason for why the tournament director would have warrant to request a source code examination. We report on data obtained from move-similarity testing. The principal dataset here consists of over 8000 positions and nearly 100 independent engines. We comment on such issues as: the robustness of the methods (upon modifying the experimental conditions), whether strong engines tend to play more similarly than weak ones, and the observed Fruit/Rybka move-similarity data. 1. History and background on derivative programs in computer chess Computer chess has seen a number of derivative programs over the years. One of the first was the incident in the 1989 World Microcomputer Chess Cham- pionship (WMCCC), in which Quickstep was disqualified due to the program being \a copy of the program Mephisto Almeria" in all important areas. -
Solving a Hypothetical Chess Problem: a Comparative Analysis of Computational Methods and Human Reasoning

Revised: 2019-02-27. Accepted: 2019-03-15. Abstract Computational modeling has enabled researchers to simulate tasks which are very often impossible in practice, such as deciphering the working of the human mind, and chess is used by many cognitive scientists as an investigative tool in studies on intelligence, behavioral patterns and cognitive development and rehabilitation. Computer analysis of databases with millions of chess games allows players’ cognitive development to be predicted and their behavioral patterns to be investigated. However, computers are not yet able to solve chess problems in which human intelligence analyzes and evaluates abstractly without the need for many concrete calculations. The aim of this article is to describe and simulate a chess problem situation proposed by the British mathematician Sir Roger Penrose and thus provide an opportunity for a comparative discussion by society of human and articial intelligence. To this end, a specialist chess computer program, Fritz 12, was used to simulate possible moves for the proposed problem. The program calculated the variations and reached a dierent result from that an amateur chess player would reach after analyzing the problem for only a short time. -
