چکیده
What is Artificial Intelligence? Artificial intelligence (AI) can be defined (circularly) as “the study of computational systems that exhibit intelligence.” Unfortunately, it is not easy to define what we mean by “intelligence.” In the context of games, an in particular in the design of non-player characters (NPCs) a working definition might be, “It is whatever a person would do.” (Where, of course, the word “person” might be replaced by “ogre,” “zombie,” or “enchanted unicorn,” whatever makes sense for the current context.)

Designing general-purpose AI systems that are capable of modeling interesting behaviors is a challenging task. On the one hand, we would like our AI system to be general enough to provide a game designer the ability to specify the subtle nuances that make a character interesting. On the other hand we would like the system to be easy to use and powerful enough that relatively simple behaviors ca...

Computer Game Architecture: A large computer game is a significant technical undertaking, involving a large number of interacting components. Of course, not all computer games require the same level of complexity. Different genres of games require different capabilities. The combination of components used for a simple casual 2-dimensional game like Tetris) is very different from a high-end 3-di...

Reading: Today’s material is drawn from a variety of sources. Some of the material on particle systems is drawn from lecture notes by Alex Benton from the University of Cambridge and the classic paper “Particle Systems: A Technique for Modeling a Class of Fuzzy Objects,” by W. T. Reeves, ACM Transactions on Graphics, 2, 1983, 91–108. The material on flocking is based in part on C. W. Reynolds, ...
