'''Richard Joseph Lorentz''',<br/>
an American computer scientist and professor of Computer Science at [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_State_University,_Northridge California State University, Northridge]. His major research activity involves the study of game playing programming. He is co-author and supervisor of the successful [[Amazons]] program [https://www.game-ai-forum.org/icga-tournaments/program.php?id=249 Invader], co-author of the [[Havannah]] program [https://www.game-ai-forum.org/icga-tournaments/program.php?id=605 Wanderer], and the [[Dots and Boxes]] program [https://www.game-ai-forum.org/icga-tournaments/program.php?id=565 Matadots]. His main interests is to expand [[Monte-Carlo Tree Search|Monte-Carlo tree search]] algorithms that exist in Invader and Wanderer <ref>[http://www.csun.edu/%7Elorentz/research.html Richard J.
