Modelling Suspicion as a Game Mechanism for Designing a Computer-Played Investigation Character Nahum Alvarez1 and Federico Peinado2 1 Production Department, Gameloft Tokyo 151-0061 Tokyo, Japan [email protected] 2 Departamento de Ingeniería del Software e Inteligencia Artificial, Facultad de Informática, Universidad Complutense de Madrid 28040 Madrid, Spain [email protected] Abstract. Nowadays creating believable characters is a top trend in the video game industry. Recent projects present new design concepts and improvements in artificial intelligence that are oriented to this goal. The expected behaviour of computer-played characters becomes increasingly demanding: proactivity, au- tonomous decision-making, social interaction, natural communication, reason- ing and knowledge management, etc. Our research project explores the possibil- ity for one of these characters to investigate, solving an enigma while dealing with incomplete information and the lies of other characters. In this paper we propose how to manage trust issues when modelling suspicion in the artificial mind of a Columbo-like detective, considering that our desired gameplay is a murder mystery game in which the player plays the role of the culprit. Keywords. Interactive Digital Storytelling, Video Game Design, Artificial In- telligence, Believable Characters, Epistemic Modal Logic, Trust Systems 1 Introduction Computer simulations allow a high grade of realism; however, computer-controlled characters in virtual worlds still feel like mere automatons: the user gives an input and receives a response. Advances in intelligent behaviour are changing the user experi- ence, improving these characters’ performance and expanding the scope of their po- tential uses. One aspect that refrain us from believing such characters are “alive” is that they seem completely “naive”: they will believe without doubts all the infor- mation received from other sources. -

Small Episodes, Big Detectives
Small Episodes, Big Detectives A genealogy of Detective Fiction and its Relation to Serialization MA Thesis Written by Bernardo Palau Cabrera Student Number: 11394145 Supervised by Toni Pape Ph.D. Second reader Mark Stewart Ph.D. MA in Media Studies - Television and Cross-Media Culture Graduate School of Humanities June 29th, 2018 Acknowledgments As I have learned from writing this research, every good detective has a sidekick that helps him throughout the investigation and plays an important role in the case solving process, sometimes without even knowing how important his or her contributions are for the final result. In my case, I had two sidekicks without whom this project would have never seen the light of day. Therefore, I would like to thank my thesis supervisor Toni Pape, whose feedback and kind advice was of great help. Thank you for helping me focus on the important and being challenging and supportive at the same time. I would also like to thank my wife, Daniela Salas, who has contributed with her useful insight, continuous encouragement and infinite patience, not only in the last months but in the whole master’s program. “Small Episodes, Big Detectives” 2 Contents Introduction ...................................................................................................................... 4 1.

Ça aurait été bien plus facile de réduire le matériau à une simple histoire d’Indiens, mais le roman de Thomas Berger était trop précieux pour être traité de la sorte, et de toute façon, c’était un défi intéressant. » Arthur Penn n journaliste vient recueillir le témoignage de Jack Crabb, 121 ans, dernier survivant U de la bataille de Little Bighorn qui vit la victoire des Indiens sur les troupes du général Custer. Le vieil homme se met à raconter l’histoire de sa vie : le massacre de ses parents par les Indiens pawnees, son adoption par les Cheyennes où il reçut le surnom de « Grand Petit Homme », puis son retour parmi les Blancs en pleines guerres indiennes… Réalisé en 1970, Little Big Man est la deuxième incursion d’Arthur Penn dans le genre du western après Le Gaucher en 1958. -
