Hiroyuki Iida
Hiroyuki Iida,
a Japanese computer scientist and computer games researcher with focus on Game-refinement theory, Opponent Model Search, and Computer Shogi. Hiroyuki Iida is Professor at Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST), and head of the games laboratory [2]. Before, he was affiliated with the Shizuoka University, Hamamatsu, and was postdoctoral researcher at Maastricht University. He received his Ph.D. on Heuristic Theories on Game-Tree Search from Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology, Tokyo [3] .
