Abstract
A calculating device selects an action and a corresponding state; acquires an evaluation value by evaluating the combination of the selected action and the selected state; identifies for each selected action, a lowest evaluation value among acquired evaluation values; determines the lowest evaluation value among evaluation values of all the states selected for each action as a minimax candidate, and determines, as a minimax, an evaluation value that is highest among the lowest evaluation values corresponding to the actions; each time an evaluation value is acquired for a combination of a state and an action after the minimax candidate is determined, compares the acquired evaluation value and the minimax candidate, and terminates selection of a state corresponding to the action when the evaluation value is lower than the minimax candidate and selects an unselected action from the action set; and outputs an action corresponding to the determined minimax.
