特別ワークショップ
 「囲碁将棋における熟達化」
Special Workshop
 "Expertise in Playing Go and Shogi"

趣旨:
 慶応大学今井むつみ研究室主催の『ABLE』で、認知科学の熟達化研究で有名なエリクソン氏を日本にお招きすることとなり、本学でもゲーム研究に関する熟達化のご講演をしていただくことになりました。このワークショップは、この講演を記念して、日本における将棋・囲碁などの思考ゲームの熟達化研究者も集まって、それぞれの研究の内容を発表し合い、思考ゲームの熟達化に関する研究について、情報交換を行おうというものです。有意義なセッションになることを期待しています。

<Title>
Toward Explicating the Structure of Expertise and Expert Performance: The Expert-Performance Approach

<Abstract>
Most of the theoretical analyses of learning by philosophers of the enlightenment and later physiologists and psychologists have focused on basic learning mechanisms, such as reflexes or associative memory traces. Complex learning and skill acquisition in everyday life have typically been explained by extrapolation of these types of processes to the development of associative strength leading eventually to automaticity.
In order to study the detailed structure of performance as it develops from normal to exceptional one would need to study it longitudinally. I will describe some my work with collaborators on studying skill acquisition, where we explicate the gradual building of skill during 400-800 hours of training with process data and experiments. I will show how the same methods was used to examine the structure of an experts’ performance. This approach was later extended to become the Expert-Performance Approach, which has been applied to study expertise in many different domains, such as music, chess, and sports. The research on the acquisition of expert performance demonstrates that focused appropriate training activities--deliberate practice--can lead to dramatic cumulative increases in performance and even change the most physical characteristics of the human body and brain with some exceptions, such as body size and height.
In my talk I will discuss how reproducibly superior performance in everyday life may be captured and analyzed in the laboratory and to identify findings on effective learning that can be translated back and tested in the original settings.

<Title>
A Cognitive Research in Shogi Playing Processes

<Abstract>
Chase and Simon introduced the concept of chunking to explain why expert chess players perform so well in memory tasks. Chunking is the process of dividing a chess position into smaller parts that have meaning. We performed similar experiments in shogi with a set of next-move problem positions, collecting verbal protocol data and eye-movement data. Our experiments also show that expert shogi players cannot only memorize the patterns of the positions but also recognize move sequences before and after the position.This result indicates that Shogi players become stronger by acquiring these temporal chunks.

Comparison between Professional Go players and amateur players based on eyemark
records and verbal reports

<Abstract>
We conducted two experiments to compare Professional Go players to amateur players, eyemark recording and getting verbal reports. Both experiment, We used  'Next move problems.'In eymaerk records, Weak players looked whole of board and  decided moves to get teritorries.
Storong players and Professional players looked at stones on the board and decided attacking opponent's stones quickly. In verbal reports, amateur playres thinked relations of stones on the board on random order, since professional  players thinked clearly sorted order. From the two experiments, we tried to make a model of thinking process of weak or strong Go players.

<Title>
A brief history and recent AI methods of computer shogi

<Abstract>
Shogi is one of the major variants of chess. The material balance is less important and the branching factor is greater than in Western chess. Because of these properties, creating a decent computer shogi player was a difficult challenge. When Deep Blue defeated the World Chess Champion Garry Kasparov in 1997, the most advanced Shogi program at that time was no better than an ordinary amateur player. Recently, computer shogi programs have started to defeat human experts.
This talk introduces a brief history and AI methods in computer shogi.

<Title>
Perception of piece position: quick concurrent responses to global and local cognitive information underlie intuitive understanding in board-game experts

<Abstract>
Experts have the superior cognitive capability of quickly understanding complex information in their domain. Here, we investigated the brain activity in expert shogi players that was involved in their quick understanding of board-game patterns. The frontal area responded only to meaningful game positions, whereas the temporal area responded to both game and random positions with the same latency (200 ms). Thus, experts responded to global cognitive information that was specific to game positions and to local cognitive information that was common to game and random positions quickly and concurrently.

<Title>
Developing Intuition: Neural Correlates of Cognitive-Skill Learning in Caudate Nucleus

<Abstract>
The superior capability of cognitive experts largely depends on automatic, quick information processing, which is often referred to as intuition. Intuition develops following extensive long-term training. There are many cognitive models on intuition development, but its neural basis is not known. Here we trained novices for 15 weeks to learn a simple board game and measured their brain activities in early and end phases of the training while they quickly generated the best next-move to a given board pattern. We found that the activation in the head of caudate nucleus developed over the course of training, in parallel to the development of the capability to quickly generate the best next-move, and the magnitude of the caudate activity was correlated with the subject's performance.
In contrast, cortical activations, which already appeared in the early phase of training, did not further change. Thus, neural activation in the caudate head, but  not those in cortical areas, tracked the development of capability to quickly generate the best next-move, indicating that circuitries including the caudate head may automate cognitive computations.
