Martin Müller's academical career included the Graz University of Technology, Jürg Nievergelt's group at ETH Zurich, University of California, Berkeley, ETL (Electrotechnical Laboratory) at University of Tsukuba and the NTT, Atsugi, Japan. His research interests focus on game-tree search and two-player games, including computer Go, Monte-Carlo tree search, depth-first proof-number search and graph history interaction (GHI). He worked within the team of Jonathan Schaeffer on solving Checkers [2], and more recently with Ryan Hayward on the game of Hex.
