Cites methods from "Learning to bid in bridge"
...For the first initiative toward allowing the machine to learn its own bidding system automatically, we use settings similar to existing works (Amit and Markovitch 2006; DeLooze and Downey 2007), and study the sub-problem of bidding without competition....
