1 Minimax Trees: Utility Evaluation, Tree Evaluation, Pruning CSCE 315 Programming Studio Fall 2017 Project 2, Lecture 2 Adapted from slides of Yoonsuck Choe, John Keyser
2 Two-Person Perfect Information Deterministic Game Two players take turns making moves Board state fully known, deterministic evaluation of moves One player wins by defeating the other (or else there is a tie) Want a strategy to win, assuming the other person plays as well as possible
3 General Strategy Player 1 wants to maximize his chance of win Player 2 wants to maximize his (minimize Player 1 s) (9 possibilities) (8 possibilities)
4 Minimax Tree Use Minimax tree to emulate human s forward thinking process In Chess, players think a couple of steps (e.g., 3-4 steps) ahead in contingency of opponent moves Similar idea applies to other such games
5 Minimax tree Min Min Minimax tree Generate a new level for each move Levels alternate between max (player 1 moves) and min (player 2 moves)
6 Minimax Tree Evaluation Assign utility values to leaves Sometimes called board evaluation function If a state is a leaf state where Player 1 wins (looses), assign the maximum(minimum) possible utility value Board State 1 Board State 2 Board State 3 Utility: +100 Utility: 0 Utility: -100 Otherwise, keep expanding (make the next move)
7 Minimax tree Min 100 Min
8 Minimax Tree Algorithm function MAX-VALUE (state) if TERMINAL-TEST (state) return UTILITY (state) v = foreach s in SUCCESSORS (state) v = MAX (v, MIN-VALUE (s)) return v function MIN-VALUE (state) if TERMINAL-TEST (state) return UTILITY (state) v = foreach s in SUCCESSORS (state) v = MIN (v, MAX-VALUE (s)) return v
9 Minimax Tree Evaluation At each min node, assign the minimum of all utility values at children Player 2 chooses the best available move At each max node, assign the maximum of all utility values at children Player 1 chooses best available move Push values from leaves to top of tree
10 Problem?? What if the node we are trying to judge is NOT a LEAF node For Chess, a LEAF node could be many levels down Could take years(!!!) to compute It would be best if there was a Oracle saying: this is promising state, go for this move The answer to this problem: Utility Function
11 Utility Function Create a utility function Evaluation of board/game state to determine how strong the position of player 1 is. Assume that x is Player 1 in the following Tic-Tac- Toe Example: You have all of Queen, Rooks, Knights, Bishops and some Pawns, while your opponent has only 1 Knight, you have a high chance of winning Utility function will assign a numeric value to this board state (say 90/100)
12 Minimax tree Min Min
13 Minimax tree Min Min
14 Minimax tree -3 Min Min
15 Minimax Evaluation Given average branching factor b, and depth m: A complete evaluation takes time b m A complete evaluation takes space bm Usually, we cannot evaluate the complete state, since it s too big Instead, we limit the depth based on various factors, including time available.
16 Utility Evaluation Function Very game-specific Take into account knowledge about game Stupid utility 1 if player 1 wins -1 if player 0 wins 0 if tie (or unknown) Only works if we can evaluate complete tree But, should form a basis for other evaluations
17 Utility Evaluation Need to assign a numerical value to the state Could assign a more complex utility value, but then the min/max determination becomes trickier Typically assign numerical values to lots of individual factors a = # player 1 s pieces - # player 2 s pieces b = 1 if player 1 has queen and player 2 does not, -1 if the opposite, or 0 if the same c = 2 if player 1 has 2-rook advantage, 1 if a 1- rook advantage, etc.
18 Utility Evaluation The individual factors are combined by some function Usually a linear weighted combination is used u = aa + bb + cc Different ways to combine are also possible Notice: quality of utility function is based on: What features are evaluated How those features are scored How the scores are weighted/combined Absolute utility value doesn t matter relative value does.
19 Evaluation functions If you had a perfect utility evaluation function, what would it mean about the minimax tree?
20 Evaluation functions If you had a perfect utility evaluation function, what would it mean about the minimax tree? You would never have to evaluate more than one level deep! Typically, you can t create such perfect utility evaluations, though.
21 Pruning the Minimax Tree Since we have limited time available, we want to avoid unnecessary computation in the minimax tree. Pruning: ways of determining that certain branches will not be useful
22 a Cuts If the current max value is greater than the successor s min value, don t explore that min subtree any more
23 a Cut example -3 Min
24 a Cut example Min Depth first search along path 1
25 a Cut example Min is minimum so far (second level) Can t evaluate yet at top level
26 a Cut example -3 Min is minimum so far (second level) -3 is maximum so far (top level)
27 a Cut example -3 Min is minimum so far (second level) -3 is still maximum (can t use second node yet)
28 a Cut example -3 Min is now minimum so far (second level) -3 is still maximum (can t use second node yet)
29 a Cut example -3 Min Since second level node will never be > -70, it will never be chosen by the previous level We can stop exploring that node
30 a Cut example -3 Min Evaluation at second level is -73
31 a Cut example -3 Min Again, can apply a cut since the second level node will never be > -73, and thus will never be chosen by the previous level
32 a Cut example -3 Min As a result, we evaluated the node without evaluating several of the possible paths
33 b cuts Similar idea to a cuts, but the other way around If the current minimum is less than the successor s max value, don t look down that max tree any more
34 b Cut example Min Min Some subtrees at second level already have values > min from previous, so we can stop evaluating them.
35 a-b Pruning Pruning by these cuts does not affect final result May allow you to go much deeper in tree Good ordering * of moves can make this pruning much more efficient Evaluating best branch first yields better likelihood of pruning later branches Perfect ordering reduces time to b m/2 i.e. doubles the depth you can search to! *Will come back to it in a bit
36 a-b Pruning Can store information along an entire path, not just at most recent levels! Keep along the path: a: best MAX value found on this path (initialize to most negative utility value) b: best MIN value found on this path (initialize to most positive utility value)
37 Pruning at MAX node a is possibly updated by the MAX of successors evaluated so far If the value that would be returned is ever > b, then stop work on this branch If all children are evaluated without pruning, return the MAX of their values
38 Pruning at MIN node b is possibly updated by the MIN of successors evaluated so far If the value that would be returned is ever < a, then stop work on this branch If all children are evaluated without pruning, return the MIN of their values
39 Idea of a-b Pruning We know b on this path is 21 So, when we get max=70, we know this will never be used, so we can stop here
40 Refined Minimax Tree With Alpha-Beta Pruning function TERNINAL-TEST (state, depth) if LEAF-NODE (state) OR depth >= MAX_DEPTH return TRUE return FALSE function MAX-VALUE (state, depth, alpha, beta) if TERMINAL-TEST (state, depth) return UTILITY (state) v = INT_MIN // minimum possible integer, emulating inf foreach s in SUCCESSORS (state) v = MAX (v, MIN-VALUE (s, depth+1, alpha, beta)) alpha = MAX (v, alpha) // update the current alpha if (v > beta) return v //prune this branch if v>beta return v
41 Idea of a-b Pruning Pruning gives the exact same result that you would have gotten without pruning It just allows you to go deeper Pruning and searching the minimax tree are independent of the particular game being studied The game influences: The utility function The branching ratio/options at any one level
42 Evaluation Functions for Ordering As mentioned earlier, order of branch evaluation can make a big difference in how well you can prune A good evaluation function might help you order your available moves First order the SUCCESSOR nodes on the UTILITY value This happens before completely expanding that node Then, expand DFS on the node with best value
43 FAQs What kind of tree data structure for the minimax tree? You do not really need to allocate a tree. We are just referring to the recursion tree inherently being created Our game works fine without alpha-beta pruning not much delay for the AI. Why do we still need pruning? This delay would be very prominent for more complicated games (e.g., chess) Why do we need to re-order the successor nodes? Again, you may not see a difference for Kalah, but it is feature and you will get points for it. The motivation is that this gives you much more speedup in a more complicated game What type of GUI do we need? Will we just do any GUI, will we full 10% points? To get full GUI points, you need to handle the game using mouse clicks and keyboard events both
