Very nice article, luckytoilet!

I recently published my own minesweeper AI, and it does only a subset of what your program does. The explanations in your article would be applicable to my work too.

My program plays the pre-Vista/7 version of Windows Minesweeper, so the graphics detection is much simpler. I only implemented a strategy that considers a single cell and its neighbors, a strategy that considers pairs of cells and their neighbors, and random guessing.
