After databases are constructed, we usually apply compression to save space. In order not to decrease the performance of accessing compressed files, we used block-based compression routines such as gzip. It is usually the case that bigger databases bring more gains. The sizes of the databases are fairly large even after using state-of-the-art compression programs. We discovered that the compression ratios vary a lot when different position indexing methods are used in a raw endgame file. The intuition is that when a continuous chunk of positions has more uniform values, gzip can better compress it than that of the case of having diversified values in this chunk. We report indexing methods that can upto 79.89% in compared to a naive indexing one when both are gziped. Our heuristics can be used on other chess-like endgames.","PeriodicalId":244862,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence and Games (CIG)","volume":"114 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124078941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

More specifically, an opponent model created through AL is used during the expansion phase of the Upper Confidence Bounds for Trees (UCT) variant of MCTS. We show how this approach can be applied to a game of Capture the Flag (CTF), an environment which is both non-deterministic and partially observable. The performance gain of a controller utilizing an opponent model learned via AL when compared to a controller using just UCT is shown both with win/loss ratios and True Skill rankings. Additionally, we build on previous findings by providing evidence of a bias towards a particular style of play in the AI Sandbox CTF environment. We believe that the approach highlighted here can be extended to a wider range of games other than just CTF.","PeriodicalId":244862,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence and Games (CIG)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122906555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper we describe a system which uses human computation to evaluate small portions of levels generated by an existing system for the game of Infinite Mario Bros. Several such evaluated portions are then combined into a full level of the game. The composition of the small portions into a full level is done by accounting for the human-annotated information and the mathematical model of tension arcs used in interactive drama and storytelling. We tested our system with human subjects and the results show that our approach is able to generate levels with better visual aesthetics and that are more enjoyable to play than other existing approaches.","PeriodicalId":244862,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence and Games (CIG)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127592613","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A popular metric of achieving this is the so-called “move history”, that is, prioritizing moves that have performed well, earlier in the search. The literature reports a number of techniques, such as the Killer Moves and History heuristics, that employ such a philosophy. Inspired by techniques from the field of Adaptive Data Structures (ADSs), we1 have previously introduced the History-ADS heuristic, which uses an adaptive list to record moves, and to improve move ordering based on move history. The History-ADS heuristic has been proven to produce substantial gains in tree pruning in a wide variety of cases. However, it made use of a relatively naive application of an unbounded, single adaptive list. In this work, we attempt to refine the History-ADS heuristic, by examining its performance by constraining the length of its adaptive list, and applying multiple ADSs for each level of the tree. Our results show that the vast majority of the savings from the History-ADS heuristic remain even with a very short list, which can be applied to mitigate the drawbacks of an unbound data structure. Although results for multiple ADSs did not outperform single ADSs, we show that they provide some insight into how similar techniques may be applied in the context of the History-ADS heuristic.","PeriodicalId":244862,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence and Games (CIG)","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127018414","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There have been several approaches investigated towards predicting them by players' behaviours during game sessions. However, most current methods are only available for specific games because the data representations utilised are usually game specific. This work intends to use frequency of game events as data representations to predict both players' disengagement from game and the decisions of their first purchases. This method is able to provide better generality because events exist in every game and no knowledge of any event but their frequency is needed. In addition, this event frequency based method will also be compared with a recent work by Runge et al. [1] in terms of disengagement prediction.","PeriodicalId":244862,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence and Games (CIG)","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130426902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since some researches are arguing about the strategy on a respectively original curling simulator, it is difficult to compare the superiority between these algorithms easily. We propose a new server system \"digital curling\" as a field about which these can argue in common. This system has realized an ideal curling sheet using physical simulator. If a client system connects with this server and a candidate move is sent, a simulator will calculate with a constant normal random number and return the actual move to the client. We introduce the system in detail. We show the validity by interview against the curling players and by the success of the competition on this system.","PeriodicalId":244862,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence and Games (CIG)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117035872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Personas, models of a user, have a number of complaints leveled against them by researchers as to their use as design tools: that there is poor empirical proof that they improve the design process, poor definitions lead to them not modeling actual uses, and they do not give any quantitative information for evaluation using a scientific approach. Examined is a framework in which a persona is not just defined as a model of a user, but is a contract list of player goals and actions available in the game. By defining a persona as a goal driven AI, it joins the idea of personas with a more qualitative evaluative method as well as not allowing developers to apply their own biases. Further, it allows for a persona to work beyond the design stage of the development, and into the maintenance stages. Taking into account game-play telemetry, it allows for personas to be used as tools for lessons learned for future developments.","PeriodicalId":244862,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence and Games (CIG)","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114504281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
