Project No. 0247:  Starcraft Brood War bot

Aktuelle

Tidligere

Description:

Starcraft is one of the strongest game franchise ever created. Professional players compete in Starcraft 2 tournaments with large price purses. Perhaps less known is that former developers of othello and chess playing programs have taken on the task to develop AIs for the game. Most developers use the relatively old Starcraft Brood War as all the necessary infrastructure is readily available: code.google.com/p/bwapi/ . Championships for AIs, bots, are arranged yearly, see for example www.sscaitournament.com. In addition, ladder systems are also available, see http://bots-stats.krasi0.com/.

The project focuses on developing a new bot. Reinforcement learning methods can be explored.

The project involves:

• studying and implementing AI methods for handling large search spaces
• developing high-level strategy reasoning algorithms and heuristics
• solving unstructured optimization problems
