| Medium | GrooveSquid.com (original content) | Medium Difficulty Summary A novel framework is proposed to measure and define decision-making styles, or playstyles, in gaming. The approach builds upon Playstyle Distance, a previously introduced unsupervised metric that measures playstyle similarity based on game screens and raw actions. The enhancements include multiscale analysis with varied state granularity, a perceptual kernel rooted in psychology, and the utilization of the intersection-over-union method for efficient evaluation. These innovations increase measurement precision and provide insights into human cognition of similarity. Experiments demonstrate significant improvements in zero-shot playstyle classification accuracy across various games, including racing games and Atari games. The framework also shows potential in puzzle and board games, such as 2048 and Go. Additionally, an algorithm is developed to assess decision-making diversity using these measures, which improves the measurement of end-to-end game analysis and the evolution of artificial intelligence for diverse playstyles. |
| Low | GrooveSquid.com (original content) | Low Difficulty Summary Gaming is all about individuality and diversity! Researchers are working on a way to measure how people make decisions while playing games. They want to know what makes each person unique in their gaming style. To do this, they’re using special computer methods that can look at game screens and actions taken by players. This helps them figure out how similar or different players’ styles are. The team tried their new method on several types of games and found it was really good at guessing which player’s style was which! They even used the same ideas to analyze puzzle and board games. This research can help us understand more about how people make decisions while playing games, and maybe even create better artificial intelligence that can play like us. |
