Game AI

How might we use novel AI techniques including machine learning and decision search to create more effective and engaging game agents and understand human behaviour in games? 


Project areas include:

  • AI agents that play games using Deep Reinforcement Learning and Statistical forward planning

  • AI agents as non-player characters

  • General Video Game AI - AI that can be transferred between video games

  • AI agents for game balancing and Quality Assurance testing
