Rogue-Gym: a New Challenge for Generalization in Reinforcement Learning
Rogue-Gym: A New Challenge for Generalization in Reinforcement Learning Yuji Kanagawa Tomoyuki Kaneko Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Interfaculty Initiative in Information Studies The University of Tokyo The University of Tokyo Tokyo, Japan Tokyo, Japan [email protected] [email protected] Abstract—In this paper, we propose Rogue-Gym, a simple and or designated areas but need to perform safely in real world classic style roguelike game built for evaluating generalization in situations that are similar to but different from their training reinforcement learning (RL). Combined with the recent progress environments. For agents to act appropriately in unknown of deep neural networks, RL has successfully trained human- level agents without human knowledge in many games such as situations, they need to properly generalize their policies that those for Atari 2600. However, it has been pointed out that agents they learned from the training environment. Generalization is trained with RL methods often overfit the training environment, also important in transfer learning, where the goal is to transfer and they work poorly in slightly different environments. To inves- a policy learned in a training environment to another similar tigate this problem, some research environments with procedural environment, called the target environment. We can use this content generation have been proposed. Following these studies, we propose the use of roguelikes as a benchmark for evaluating method to reduce the training time in many applications of the generalization ability of RL agents. In our Rogue-Gym, RL. For example, we can imagine a situation in which we agents need to explore dungeons that are structured differently train an enemy in an action game through experience across each time they start a new game. -

First-person shooters are a type of and having superior mental flexibility. It was found that three-dimensional shooter game featuring a first-person people playing such games require a significantly shorter point of view with which the player sees the action through reaction time for switching between complex tasks, mainly the eyes of the player character. They are unlike third- because when playing fps games they require to rapidly react person shooters in which the player can see (usually from to fast moving visuals by developing a more responsive mind behind) the character they are controlling.

Action Video-Game Training and Its Effects on Perception and Attentional Control
Action Video-Game Training and Its Effects on Perception and Attentional Control C. Shawn Green , Thomas Gorman , and Daphne Bavelier Introduction Over the past 40 years, video game play has grown from a niche activity into a pervasive and abundant part of modern life. Over half of the United States popula- tion now plays video games, with over 130 million of these individuals being con- sidered “regular” video game players (i.e., playing more than 3 h of video games per week—ESA 2015 ). And although video games were originally, and for the most part continue to be, an entertainment medium, there has nonetheless been signifi - cant scientifi c interest in the possibility that video gaming may have signifi cant effects on the human brain and human behavior . While much of this research has focused on potential negative outcomes (e.g., effects related to aggression or addic- tion—Anderson et al. 2010 ), there exists a growing body of research outlining posi- tive effects of video game play as well. This chapter will specifi cally focus on the positive impact that playing one particular type of video game, known as “action video games,” has on perceptual and attentional skills. The “ Curse of Specifi city” Before discussing the various effects associated with action video game play, it is worth considering why it is interesting in the fi rst place that something like video game play could alter core perceptual or attentional abilities. Indeed, one’s fi rst C. S. Green (*) • T. Gorman Department of Psychology , University of Wisconsin-Madison , Madison , WI , USA e-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] D. -

HARPER has been approved for the School of Media Arts and Studies and the Scripps College of Communication by Mia L. Consalvo Associate Professor of Media Arts and Studies Gregory J. Shepherd Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii ABSTRACT HARPER, TODD L., Ph.D., November 2010, Mass Communications The Art of War: Fighting Games, Performativity, and Social Game Play (244 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Mia L. Consalvo This dissertation draws on feminist theory – specifically, performance and performativity – to explore how digital game players construct the game experience and social play. Scholarship in game studies has established the formal aspects of a game as being a combination of its rules and the fiction or narrative that contextualizes those rules. The question remains, how do the ways people play games influence what makes up a game, and how those players understand themselves as players and as social actors through the gaming experience? Taking a qualitative approach, this study explored players of fighting games: competitive games of one-on-one combat. Specifically, it combined observations at the Evolution fighting game tournament in July, 2009 and in-depth interviews with fighting game enthusiasts. In addition, three groups of college students with varying histories and experiences with games were observed playing both competitive and cooperative games together. -

I NTROt>U(TION Get ready for the Epic Adventure of a lifetime. You are Hercules, battling through a series of action-packed levels in order to prove yourself a True Hero on Earth and take your rightful place as a god on Mount Olympus! However, before you can face your first monster, you'll have to convince Phil, Herc's temperamental trainer, that you've got what it takes to be a True Hero. Once you've sharpened your skills, rescued a few "Damsels in Distress:• and shown Phil you've got what it takes, you'll be ready to set offfor some REAL adventure! If you're able to make your way through the deadly Centaur Forest, survive the chaotic "Big Olive," and defeat the fearsome Hydra you'll think you've got this hero stuff wired! But that's just the beginning. Hades, dark lord of the Underworld, is carrying out his evil plan. He's enlisted the Titans - elemental creatures of Ice, Wind, Lava and Rock - as well as a monstrous brood of fire-breathing Griffins,razor beaked Harpies, and a whole army of Skeleton Warriors to help him. To foil Hades' plan Hercules is going to have to use every bit of his training, strength and skill. So guzzle some Herculade, sharpen your sword, and see if you have what it takes to go the distance, and become a TRUE HERO! NOTE: The default setting of this game is "Medium Difficulty". Beginning players might want to start on the "Beginner Difficulty" setting to practice, but just be aware that you will not be able to play the last two levels of the game . -
