Evolving AI Opponents in a First-Person-Shooter Video Game

چکیده
One of the major commercial applications of AI is in the rapidly expanding computer game industry. Virtually every game sold today has some sort of AI, from the "computer player" in a chess game to the machine-gun-toting enemies in a first-person shooter (FPS). Any virtual being that does not behave in a strictly pre-scripted manner has some sort of AI behind it. Sadly, however, the multi-billion dollar gaming industry has done very little to advance the field of AI. The industry has moved past the day when an AI opponent would not even react to the death of his teammate standing three feet away, but that does not mean these bots, as they are commonly called, have any serious thought processes.

Implementation of a Human-Like Bot in a First Person Shooter: Second Place Bot at BotPrize 2008
A first person shooter game is a game genre where fun in the game resorts to the skill of the opponents. In particular, when the opponents are bots, adjustment of their skill levels as well as implementation of their human-likeness are important research issues that many research groups have been studying recently in order to make bots more interesting to play with. This led to a contest called...
متن کاملDynamic Learning Approach to Artificial Intelligence Based Generated Combat Game Tactics
Game (Artificial Intelligence) is defined as the decision making process of computer-controlled opponent in video games. To improve the entertainment value of games, Adaptive game AI can be used to allowing computer-controlled opponents to fix weaknesses automatically in the game AI, and to respond to changes in human-player tactics. Dynamic Scripting is a reinforcement learning technique succe...
متن کاملAn Empirical Study of Machine Learning Algorithms Applied to Modeling Player Behavior in a “First Person Shooter” Video Game
Modern video games present many challenging applications for artificial intelligence. Agents must not only appear intelligent but must also be fun to play against. In the video game genre of the first person shooter an agent must mimic all the behaviors of a human soldier in a combat situation. The standard opponent in a “first person shooter” uses a finite-state machine and a series of hand co...
متن کاملTraining Agent for First-person Shooter Game with Actor-critic Curriculum Learning
In this paper, we propose a new framework for training vision-based agent for First-Person Shooter (FPS) Game, in particular Doom. Our framework combines the state-of-the-art reinforcement learning approach (Asynchronous Advantage Actor-Critic (A3C) model [Mnih et al. (2016)]) with curriculum learning. Our model is simple in design and only uses game states from the AI side, rather than using o...
متن کاملAdding Smart Opponents to a First-Person Shooter Video Game through Evolutionary Design
We demonstrate how a first-person shooter (FPS) video game can be made more fun and challenging by replacing the hard-wired behavior of opponents with behaviors evolved via an evolutionary algorithm. Using the opensource FPS game Cube as a platform, we replaced the agents' (opponents) hard-wired behavior with binary “DNA” supporting a much richer variety of agent responses. Survival-of-the-fitt...
