How to Run a Successful Game-Based AI Competition
2016
IEEE Transactions on Computational Intelligence and AI in Games
Preserved Fulltext
There is also a discussion of how to write up game-based AI competitions and what we can ultimately learn from them. ...
Game-based competitions are commonly used within the Computational Intelligence (CI) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in games community to benchmark algorithms and to attract new researchers. ...
SUCCESS AND FAILURE Not all game-based AI competitions are equal: some have more impact than others. A competition may get no entrants, run only once, stagnate, or evolve and keep being relevant. ...
