Method for Constructing Artificial Intelligence Player with Abstraction to Markov Decision Processes in Multiplayer Game of Mahjong

16 Apr 2019  ·  Moyuru Kurita, Kunihito Hoki ·

We propose a method for constructing artificial intelligence (AI) of mahjong, which is a multiplayer imperfect information game. Since the size of the game tree is huge, constructing an expert-level AI player of mahjong is challenging. We define multiple Markov decision processes (MDPs) as abstractions of mahjong to construct effective search trees. We also introduce two methods of inferring state values of the original mahjong using these MDPs. We evaluated the effectiveness of our method using gameplays vis-\`{a}-vis the current strongest AI player.
