Mastering Gomoku with AlphaZero: A Study in Advanced AI Game Strategy
Abstract
This study delves into the application of the AlphaZero algorithm to Gomoku, a classic board game. Unlike traditional AI methods, AlphaZero learns and strategizes without human input. Our research contrasts AlphaZero's innovative approach with the Monte Carlo tree search technique, highlighting its advanced capabilities in strategic decision-making. The findings reveal AlphaZero's remarkable proficiency in mastering the complexities of Gomoku, marking a significant advancement in artificial intelligence's role in game strategy and decision-making. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of AlphaZero's learning process and strategic execution in Gomoku, offering insights into the future of AI in strategic gaming.
