However, the main topics of this paper are Game Theory and operations research.
Absence of a Popular Subject: Currently, the two hot-topics in the field of machine learning are deep learning and reinforcement learning.The first time you read it, the thesis feels like an endless fog of mathematics. Once the mathematic definitions ended, the rest of the paper is a lengthy proof of a theorem. Significant Amount of Mathematical Jargon: An entire section of the paper is completely occupied by definitions of mathematic symbols.There are three possible reasons for the lack of enthusiasm: However, the thesis did not spark particularly passionate debate among Chinese AI experts. Then, in November of 2017, the paper co-authored by Noam Brown and Tuomas Sandholm, 'Safe and Nested Endgame Solving for Imperfect-information Games', received the NIPS 2017 Best Thesis Award. In January 2017, Libratus took on four professional poker players, beating all of them handily and winning nearly all the chips in play. Its creators, Professor Tuomas Sandholm and his student Noam Brown from CMU intend for it to be like other, non-Poker-specific applications. Libratus is an artificial intelligence computer program designed to play poker, specifically no-limit Texas hold'em. Libratus and the 'Unpopular' NIPS 2017 Best Thesis
