Gomoku

1989

Although he did not specify exactly which values of k are allowed, the reduction would appear to generalize to any k ≥ 5. There exist several well-known tournaments for gomoku programs since 1989.

The Computer Olympiad started with the gomoku game in 1989, but gomoku has not been in the list since 1993.

1991

The Renju World Computer Championship was started in 1991, and held for 4 times until 2004.

1993

The Computer Olympiad started with the gomoku game in 1989, but gomoku has not been in the list since 1993.

2000

The Gomocup tournament is played since 2000 and taking place every year, still active now, with more than 30 participants from about 10 countries.

2001

In 2001, Allis' winning strategy was also approved for renju, a variation of gomoku, when there was no limitation on the opening stage. However, neither the theoretical values of all legal positions, nor the opening rules such as Swap2 used by the professional gomoku players have been solved yet, so the topic of gomoku artificial intelligence is still a challenge for computer scientists, such as the problem on how to improve the gomoku algorithms to make them more strategic and competitive.

2004

The Renju World Computer Championship was started in 1991, and held for 4 times until 2004.

2005

The Hungarian Computer Go-Moku Tournament was also played twice in 2005.

2006

Human tournaments played in the Czech Republic, in 2006 and 2011.

2011

Human tournaments played in the Czech Republic, in 2006 and 2011.

2017

Not until 2017 were the computer programs proved to be able to outperform the world human champion in public competitions.

In the Gomoku World Championship 2017, there was a match between the world champion program Yixin and the world champion human player Rudolf Dupszki.
