Learning to play in digital games
There is growing interest in the use of games for educational purposes, particularly with regard to teaching curriculum subjects. Much of the research however has focused either on the content of games or the learning theory they illustrate.

متن کاملLearning to Play Complex Games
We describe an algorithm, inspired by the biological behavior of ants, to efficiently determine intelligent moves and the genetic algorithm used to learn better strategies in a broad class of games. We present a class of games called Simple War Games that includes both deterministic and nondeterministic, perfect information, two-player, zero sum games. Simple War Games have a branching factor a...
متن کاملLearning to Play Atari Games
Teaching computers to play video games is a complex learning problem that has recently seen increased attention. In this paper, we develop a system that, using constant model and hyperparameter settings, learns to play a variety of Atari games. In order to accomplish this task, we extract object features from the game screen, and provide these features as input into reinforcement learning algor...
