Bridge

Bridge is a card game played by four players. As with virtually all card games, one of its primary features is that it is a game of imperfect information in that different players have different information about the actual state of the game. This is one of several features that make it difficult for machines to be competent bridge players.

CIRL

While humans currently outplay computers in this game, computer bridge players are improving rapidly. This is due almost entirely to work done at CIRL on the bridge-playing program GIB.
