Abstract:
This paper introduces a model of a mouse moving through a maze in the Java programming language and seeks to improve upon mouse movement and decision making by having the mouse make decisions like a human. These improvements include consistent rules in movement, location marking, and location mapping. By giving some intelligence and memory to the mouse, it will solve mazes more efficiently.

This paper was kind of rushed so I’m not too happy about its quality. Also, the Mouse Maze program still has bugs to be worked out. Nevertheless, it is in a good condition to release.
