The current emphasis in computer game AI is improving the quality of opponent AI. Our research question reads: How can unsupervised online learning be incorporated in Computer Role Playing Game(CRPG) to improve the strategy of the opponent AI? Our goal is to use online evolutionary learning to design strategies that can defeat the opponent. So we apply a novel technique called dynamic scripting that realizes online adaptation of scripted opponent AI and report on experiments performed in a simulated CRPG to assess the adaptive performance obtained with the technique.展开更多

Previously, we tried to estimate the elements of fun by conducting a questionnaire to players, but the results were not good. Therefore, we propose an analysis using the player’s biological information to make a more accurate estimation. Specifically, we try to elucidate the elements of fun by having a player who is playing a game wear a smart watch, and measuring and analyzing the heart rate of that player. This paper conducts an experiment to determine whether our intended data can be collected. As a result, it was found that there is a response to the heart rate in a specific scene, and there is a possibility that the intended data can be collected. We plan to conduct larger experiments in the future.展开更多
