Hi,I am also doing research about Neural strategy in Games.
To have a short one,
I put Blondie24 (Chellapilla, K., and Fogel, D.B., 2001) as the first
in the list.
It can lead you to many other heuristic GAME AI evalution function,
since it is one of the most sucessfuly developed using Co-evolutionary
algorithm.
