SLIDE 2

Who are we?

GP is cool

SLIDE 7

What did we know about Starcraft before?

SLIDE 8

Nothing

Well, Alberto played half-campaign in the 2000s

SLIDE 9

Then again, why StarCraft?

SLIDE 10

It’s the testbed in RTS AI research

SLIDE 11

And what did we do?

SLIDE 12

.cpp

SLIDE 13

SLIDE 14

SLIDE 15

What does our generated code do?

SLIDE 16

We don’ t know

SLIDE 17

SLIDE 18

Why is it “Human Competitive”?

SLIDE 19

It cannot win vs. humans

Well, actually no AI can beat humans in Starcraft (yet)

SLIDE 20

However...

SLIDE 21

It can beat several human-made techniques

SLIDE 22

And, it can beat the human-made bot used as baseline

SLIDE 23

And, thanks to this work...

SLIDE 24

We created an international group focused on Computational Intelligence in Games

(see our awesome paper on Hearthstone in the CIG conference!)
