  abstract =     "We apply genetic programming to the evolution of
                 strategies for playing the game of backgammon. Pitted
                 in a 1000-game tournament against a standard benchmark
                 player---Pubeval---our best evolved program wins 58\%
                 of the games, the highest verifiable result to date.
                 Moreover, several other evolved programs attain win
                 percentages not far behind the champion, evidencing the
                 repeatability of our approach.",
