The book is focused on the developments and prospective challenging problems in the area of mind game playing (i.e. playing games that require mental skills) using Computational Intelligence (CI) methods, mainly neural networks, genetic/evolutionary programming and reinforcement learning. The majority of discussed game playing ideas were selected based on their functional similarity to human game playing. These similarities include: learning from scratch, autonomous experience-based improvement and example-based learning. The above features determine the major distinction between CI and traditional AI methods relying mostly on using effective game tree search algorithms, carefully tuned hand-crafted evaluation functions or hardware-based brute-force methods. On the other hand, it should be noted that the aim of this book is by no means to underestimate the achievements of traditional AI methods in game playing domain. On the contrary, the accomplishments of AI approaches are undisputable and speak for themselves. The goal is rather to express my belief that other alternative ways of developing mind game playing machines are possible and urgently needed.

What Is General Game Playing The concept of general game playing, sometimes known as GGP, refers to the development of artificial intelligence programs that are capable of competing well in more than one game. Computers are programmed to play many different games, such as chess, using an algorithm that is built specifically for that game and cannot be used in any other setting. For instance, a computer software that is designed to play chess cannot also play checkers. On the road to creating artificial general intelligence, generic game playing is seen as a necessary milestone. How You Will Benefit (I) Insights, and validations about the following topics: Chapter 1: General game playing Chapter 2: Artificial intelligence Chapter 3: Machine learning Chapter 4: Game Description Language Chapter 5: List of programming languages for artificial intelligence Chapter 6: Monte Carlo tree search Chapter 7: Deep reinforcement learning Chapter 8: Artificial intelligence in video games Chapter 9: Machine learning in video games Chapter 10: Google DeepMind (II) Answering the public top questions about general game playing.

What Is Artificial Intelligence Video Games Artificial intelligence (AI) is used in video games to develop responsive, adaptive, or intelligent behaviors, primarily in non-player characters (NPCs), that are akin to the intellect of humans. Since the beginning of the video game industry in the 1950s, artificial intelligence has been an essential component of the medium. Artificial intelligence (AI) in video games is a discrete topic that is distinct from AI in academic settings. Rather than serving the purposes of machine learning or decision making, it is designed to enhance the experience of game players. The concept of artificial intelligence (AI) opponents became very popular during the golden age of arcade video games. This concept manifested itself in the form of graduated difficulty levels, distinct movement patterns, and in-game events that were reliant on the player's input. The behavior of non-player characters (NPCs) in modern games is frequently governed by tried-and-true methods such as pathfinding and decision trees. Data mining and procedural content production are two examples of AI applications that are frequently utilized in methods that are not immediately obvious to the user. How You Will Benefit (I) Insights, and validations about the following topics: Chapter 1: Artificial intelligence in video games Chapter 2: Artificial intelligence Chapter 3: List of artificial intelligence projects Chapter 4: Video game programmer Chapter 5: Interactive storytelling Chapter 6: Outline of video games Chapter 7: Outline of artificial intelligence Chapter 8: General game playing Chapter 9: Dynamic game difficulty balancing Chapter 10: Machine learning in video games (II) Answering the public top questions about artificial intelligence video games.

Research on general video game playing aims at designing agents or content generators that can perform well in multiple video games, possibly without knowing the game in advance and with little to no specific domain knowledge. The general video game AI framework and competition propose a challenge in which researchers can test their favorite AI methods with a potentially infinite number of games created using the Video Game Description Language. The open-source framework has been used since 2014 for running a challenge. Competitors around the globe submit their best approaches that aim to generalize well across games. Additionally, the framework has been used in AI modules by many higher-education institutions as assignments, or as proposed projects for final year (undergraduate and Master's) students and Ph.D. candidates. The present book, written by the developers and organizers of the framework, presents the most interesting highlights of the research performed by the authors during these years in this domain. It showcases work on methods to play the games, generators of content, and video game optimization. It also outlines potential further work in an area that offers multiple research directions for the future.

The mind-set that has dominated the history of computer game playing relies on straightforward exploitation of the available computing power. The fact that a machine can explore millions of variations sooner than the sluggish human can wink an eye has inspired hopes that the mystery of intelligence can be cracked, or at least side-stepped, by sheer force. Decades of the steadily growing strength of computer programs have attested to the soundness of this approach. It is clear that deeper understanding can cut the amount of necessary calculations by orders of magnitude. The papers collected in this volume describe how to instill learning skills in game playing machines. The reader is asked to keep in mind that this is not just about games -- the possibility that the discussed techniques will be used in control systems and in decision support always looms in the background.

In this textbook the author takes as inspiration recent breakthroughs in game playing to explain how and why deep reinforcement learning works. In particular he shows why two-person games of tactics and strategy fascinate scientists, programmers, and game enthusiasts and unite them in a common goal: to create artificial intelligence (AI). After an introduction to the core concepts, environment, and communities of intelligence and games, the book is organized into chapters on reinforcement learning, heuristic planning, adaptive sampling, function approximation, and self-play. The author takes a hands-on approach throughout, with Python code examples and exercises that help the reader understand how AI learns to play. He also supports the main text with detailed pointers to online machine learning frameworks, technical details for AlphaGo, notes on how to play and program Go and chess, and a comprehensive bibliography. The content is class-tested and suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses on artificial intelligence and games. It's also appropriate for self-study by professionals engaged with applications of machine learning and with games development. Finally it's valuable for any reader engaged with the philosophical implications of artificial and general intelligence, games represent a modern Turing test of the power and limitations of AI.

General game players are computer systems able to play strategy games based solely on formal game descriptions supplied at "runtime" (n other words, they don't know the rules until the game starts). Unlike specialized game players, such as Deep Blue, general game players cannot rely on algorithms designed in advance for specific games; they must discover such algorithms themselves. General game playing expertise depends on intelligence on the part of the game player and not just intelligence of the programmer of the game player. GGP is an interesting application in its own right. It is intellectually engaging and more than a little fun. But it is much more than that. It provides a theoretical framework for modeling discrete dynamic systems and defining rationality in a way that takes into account problem representation and complexities like incompleteness of information and resource bounds. It has practical applications in areas where these features are important, e.g., in business and law. More fundamentally, it raises questions about the nature of intelligence and serves as a laboratory in which to evaluate competing approaches to artificial intelligence. This book is an elementary introduction to General Game Playing (GGP). (1) It presents the theory of General Game Playing and leading GGP technologies. (2) It shows how to create GGP programs capable of competing against other programs and humans. (3) It offers a glimpse of some of the real-world applications of General Game Playing.
