Reports of the 2012 AIIDE Workshops

摘要

Artificial Intelligence in Adversarial Real-Time Games With the advent of the BWAPI StarCraft programming interface, interest in real-time strategy (RTS) game AI has increased considerably. At the 2011 AIIDE conference, several papers on the subject were presented, ranging from build order planning, over state estimation, to plan recognition. In addition, a panel discussion on RTS game AI took place, the StarCraft competition was discussed, prizes were awarded, and two exhibition match replays were shown. For some conference attendees this was a bit too much StarCraft content. For others it wasn't enough because little was said about the inner workings of the strongest competition entries. To address these concerns, holding a workshop on RTS game AI topics at AIIDE 2012 was proposed in the organizing meeting that concluded the AIIDE 2011 conference. In subsequent discussions with members of the organizing committee it was felt that the coverage of the workshop should be extended to adversarial real-time games, so that, for instance, First-Person-Shooter game AI would be included.
