Leibo1 1DeepMind We present DeepMind Lab2D, a scalable environment simulator for artificial intelligence research that facilitates researcher-led experimentation with environment design.

  • Efficiently Mastering the Game of Nogo with Deep Reinforcement
    electronics Article Efficiently Mastering the Game of NoGo with Deep Reinforcement Learning Supported by Domain Knowledge Yifan Gao 1,*,† and Lezhou Wu 2,† 1 College of Medicine and Biological Information Engineering, Northeastern University, Liaoning 110819, China 2 College of Information Science and Engineering, Northeastern University, Liaoning 110819, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] † These authors contributed equally to this work. Abstract: Computer games have been regarded as an important field of artificial intelligence (AI) for a long time. The AlphaZero structure has been successful in the game of Go, beating the top professional human players and becoming the baseline method in computer games. However, the AlphaZero training process requires tremendous computing resources, imposing additional difficulties for the AlphaZero-based AI. In this paper, we propose NoGoZero+ to improve the AlphaZero process and apply it to a game similar to Go, NoGo. NoGoZero+ employs several innovative features to improve training speed and performance, and most improvement strategies can be transferred to other nonspecific areas. This paper compares it with the original AlphaZero process, and results show that NoGoZero+ increases the training speed to about six times that of the original AlphaZero process. Moreover, in the experiment, our agent beat the original AlphaZero agent with a score of 81:19 after only being trained by 20,000 self-play games’ data (small in quantity compared with Citation: Gao, Y.; Wu, L. Efficiently 120,000 self-play games’ data consumed by the original AlphaZero). The NoGo game program based Mastering the Game of NoGo with on NoGoZero+ was the runner-up in the 2020 China Computer Game Championship (CCGC) with Deep Reinforcement Learning limited resources, defeating many AlphaZero-based programs.

    MUSTAFA SULEYMAN, DEEPMIND INTRO Thank you Mr. President and your excellencies for the invitation to speak to you about what artificial intelligence can do to help achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. As a global community, we’ve made significant strides over the last few decades, taking on some of the world’s greatest tragedies like child mortality. Every single day 17,000 new lives get to be lived, by children who would have died just 25 years ago. Peaceful cooperation and relentless innovation has been the driving force of this truly spectacular progress. And, yet, in many ways inequality hasn’t improved—it’s become worse. Malnutrition and preventable disease continue to kill millions, impacting both developed and developing world healthcare systems, and the devastating threat of climate change looms, with the effects set to hit the poorest the hardest. If we are to decrease this level of suffering, then we’ll have to make sure humanity is doing everything possible to come up with bold, new solutions. But to have any chance of truly solving these problems - one of the great goals of human civilisation and I would argue ​ core to the founding purpose of this great institution - then what’s possible won’t be ​ enough. We must take on what is currently impossible, and do all we can to push back the ​ ​ limits of what humanity can achieve. These limits are real, and they cap all of our aspirations for change. Our efforts to tackle disease are capped by a desperate shortage of trained nurses and doctors — in the rich West as well as in developing nations.

  • AI in Focus - Fundamental Artificial Intelligence and Video Games
    AI in Focus - Fundamental Artificial Intelligence and Video Games April 5, 2019 By Isi Caulder and Lawrence Yu Patent filings for fundamental artificial intelligence (AI) technologies continue to rise. Led by a number of high profile technology companies, including IBM, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Samsung, and AT&T, patent applications directed to fundamental AI technologies, such as machine learning, neural networks, natural language processing, speech processing, expert systems, robotic and machine vision, are being filed and issued in ever-increasing numbers.[1] In turn, these fundamental AI technologies are being applied to address problems in industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, and transportation. A somewhat unexpected source of fundamental AI technology development has been occurring in the field of video games. Traditional board games have long been a subject of study for AI research. In the 1990’s, IBM created an AI for playing chess, Deep Blue, which was able to defeat top-caliber human players using brute force algorithms.[2] More recently, machine learning algorithms have been developed for more complex board games, which include a larger breadth of possible moves. For example, DeepMind (since acquired by Google), recently developed the first AI capable of defeating professional Go players, AlphaGo.[3] Video games have recently garnered the interest of researchers, due to their closer similarity to the “messiness” and “continuousness” of the real world. In contrast to board games, video games typically include a greater
