abstract = "In this paper, we evolve heuristics to guide staged
deepening search for the hard game of FreeCell,
obtaining top-notch solvers for this human-challenging
puzzle. We first devise several novel heuristic
measures using minimal domain knowledge and then use
them as building blocks in two evolutionary setups
involving a standard genetic algorithm and
policy-based, genetic programming. Our evolved solvers
outperform the best FreeCell solver to date by three
distinct measures: 1) number of search nodes is reduced
by over 78percent; 2) time to solution is reduced by
over 94percent; and 3) average solution length is
reduced by over 30percent. Our top solver is the best
published FreeCell player to date, solving 99.65percent
of the standard Microsoft 32 K problem set. Moreover,
it is able to convincingly beat high-ranking human
players.",
