Go is an extremely complex strategic board game despite its simple rules and is the great challenging classic game for AI due to its enormous search space. The computer program AlphaGo finally defeated Fan Hui, the European Go champion, without handicaps on a full-sized 19 ×19 board in October 2015. Monte-Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) is a widely-used algorithm for game-tree search in game playing. MCTS based on statistical sampling is a best-first tree search technique to evaluate states; UCT which is a variant of MCTS uses the UCB1 formula as selection policy. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of MCTS and UCT playing against each other in the game of Tic-Tac-Toe. The experimental results show that the first player UCT is slightly superior to the second player MCTS (54.3±1.0%), the first player is always advantageous to the second player regardless of the MCTS and UCT players, and the result of each game should be a tie if both players do their best in Tic-Tac-Toe.

고대 중국에서 기원된 바둑은 인공지능 분야에서 가장 어려운 도전 중의 하나로 간주된다. 지난 수년에 걸쳐 MCTS를 기반으로 하는 정상급 컴퓨터바둑 프로그램이 놀랍게도 접바둑에서 프로기사를 물리쳤다. MCTS는 게임이 끝날 때까지 일련의 무작위 유효착수를 시뮬레이션 하 는 접근법이며, 기존의 지식기반 접근법을 대체했다. 저자는 MCTS의 변형인 UCT 알고리즘을 삼목 게임에 적용하여 최선의 첫 수를 찾고자 했으며, 순수 MCTS의 결과와 비교를 했다. 아울 러 UCB 이해를 위한 다중슬롯머신 문제를 풀기 위해 엡실론-탐욕 알고리즘과 UCB 알고리즘 을 소개 및 성능을 비교하였다.

In this study, as the preliminary step for developing an unmanned vehicle to deliver a container-box, we designed and implemented Automatic Guided Vehicle(AGV) Simulator for the purpose of Port Facilities Automation. It is preferable to research the intelligent AGV for delivery all day long. For complementing AGV simulator driving, we used multiple-sensor systems with vision, ultrasonic, IR and adapted the high-speed wireless LAN that satisfies the IEEE 802.11 Standard for bi-directional communication between main processor in AGV and Host computer. Here, we mounted on bottom frame in AGV Pentium-III processor, which combine and compute the information from each sensor system and control the AGV driving, and used the 80C196KC micro-controller to control the actuating and steering motors.
