Short and long term memory in coevolution

Abstract

Games provide the perfect test bed for measuring the effectiveness ofcomputer generated strategies in a competitive and fun environment.Over the years many different games have been tackled by researchersof computational intelligence with the purpose of creating an intelligentcomputer player that can challenge human players. In this paper the au-thors summarize the research performed over the past two years basedon the game of Tempo, where the coevolved strategies were representedby logic rule bases with an adaptive memory. The experiments were setup to investigate the effectiveness of various memory structures in a co-evolutionary game system, as well as the effectiveness of various recallprocesses.
