  1. MAPLE: Multi-State Aggregated Policy Evaluation for AlphaZero in Imperfect-Information Games

    Researchers have developed a new tree search method called MAPLE, designed to improve the performance of AlphaZero-style algorithms in imperfect-information games. Unlike previous methods that struggle with strategy fusion or high computational costs, MAPLE aggregates policy and value evaluations from multiple sampled world states within a single search tree. Experiments on Phantom Go and Dark Hex demonstrated significant Elo improvements, showing MAPLE's effectiveness for AlphaZero-like learning in complex games. AI

    IMPACT Introduces a novel approach for AI agents to master complex games with incomplete information.

  2. Less Effort, Shorter Proofs: Reinforcement Learning for Security Protocol Analysis in Tamarin

    Researchers have developed a reinforcement learning (RL) framework to automate and shorten the process of analyzing security protocols using the Tamarin tool. This new method, inspired by AlphaZero, employs a neural heuristic to guide a Monte Carlo Tree Search, learning from completed subproofs. Evaluations on 16 case studies show that the RL approach finds more proofs automatically and generates shorter proofs compared to existing methods, significantly reducing the human effort required for protocol verification.
