چکیده

The pursuit of a viable model of player behaviour has gained momentum in research in recent years, and it is beginning to attract the attention of the designers of next-generation digital games. In this paper, we present a novel enhancement to player modelling that is well-suited to the digital roleplaying and puzzle game industries, titled Goal-DirectedPlayer Modelling, in which state abstraction based on a player’s goals is used to improve the performance of a classifier for predicting player actions. We survey a set of related research, formally introduce a method for Goal-DirectedPlayer Modelling, and present empirical results which clearly show the ability of Goal-Directed-Player Modelling to greatly improve the accuracy of a simple, online, low cost incremental classifier to a level near those of more advanced and complex offline methods.

Dynamic system of strategic games

Maybe an event can't be modeled completely through one game but there is more chance with several games. With emphasis on players' rationality, we present new properties of strategic games, which result in production of other games. Here, a new attitude to modeling will be presented in game theory as dynamic system of strategic games and its some applications such as analysis of the clash betwe...

Multimodal Goal Recognition in Open-World Digital Games

Recent years have seen a growing interest in player modeling to create player-adaptive digital games. As a core player-modeling task, goal recognition aims to recognize players’ latent, high-level intentions in a non-invasive fashion to deliver goal-driven, tailored game experiences. This paper reports on an investigation of multimodal data streams that provide rich evidence about players’ goal...

Player Goal Recognition in Open-World Digital Games with Long Short-Term Memory Networks

Recent years have seen a growing interest in player modeling for digital games. Goal recognition, which aims to accurately recognize players’ goals from observations of low-level player actions, is a key problem in player modeling. However, player goal recognition poses significant challenges because of the inherent complexity and uncertainty pervading gameplay. In this paper, we formulate play...

Goal Recognition with Markov Logic Networks for Player-Adaptive Games

Goal recognition in digital games involves inferring players’ goals from observed sequences of low-level player actions. Goal recognition models support player-adaptive digital games, which dynamically augment game events in response to player choices for a range of applications, including entertainment, training, and education. However, digital games pose significant challenges for goal recogn...
