> Title: Libratus: Beating Top Humans in No-Limit Poker
>
> Abstract:
> Poker has been a challenge problem in AI and game theory for decades. As a
> game of imperfect information, poker involves obstacles not present in
> games like chess or go. No program has been able to beat top professionals
> in large poker games, until now. In January 2017, our AI Libratus
> decisively defeated a team of the top professional players in heads-up
> no-limit Texas Hold'em. Libratus features a number of innovations which
> form a new approach to AI for imperfect-information games. The algorithms
> are domain-independent and are widely applicable to any strategic
> interaction involving hidden information.

> Bio:
> Noam Brown is a PhD student in computer science at Carnegie Mellon
> University advised by Professor Tuomas Sandholm. His research combines
> reinforcement learning and game theory to develop AIs capable of strategic
> reasoning in imperfect-information interactions. He has applied this
> research to creating Libratus, the first AI to defeat top professional
> poker players in no-limit Texas Hold'em.
