5 gold medals at the Computer Olympiads!

Quentin Cohen-Solal (postdoc PRAIRIE since February 2020) and Tristan Cazenave (supervisor, PRAIRIE chair) won 5 gold medals at the Computer Olympiads in the following games: Othello 10×10, Breakthrough, Surakarta, Amazons, and Clobber.

The programs competing for each of these games use the same zero knowledge reinforcement learning algorithms (fundamentally different from the Alpha Zero algorithms), created by Quentin Cohen-Solal and then improved during the PRAIRIE postdoc. This is the first time that the same algorithms have made it possible to win 5 gold medals at the Computer Olympiads.
