Monte Carlo tree search for dynamic shortest‐path interdiction Open
We present a reinforcement learning‐based heuristic for a two‐player interdiction game called the dynamic shortest path interdiction problem (DSPI). The DSPI involves an evader and an interdictor who take turns in the problem, with the int…
