artificial-intelligence - 对于一群本科生来说，你对一个好的人工智能项目有什么想法？

Question

有两门类(class):“AI”和“AI in Games”，均为 15 名学生，为期 15 周。
我想让他们保持动力和创造力。
我知道我想要某种竞争(后一门类(class)很明显)。
也许像马拉松比赛或 ICFP。
我需要良好的可视化，所以如果它已经存在就太好了。
一个想法是为“韦诺之战”编写人工智能，但我想这是多样化/无聊的。
另一个围棋游戏。但这太难了。

你有什么想法？

它将以 3 名学生为一组进行为期 15 周的学习。

Answer 1

麻省理工学院举办了一场名为 BattleCode 的比赛.

BattleCode, is a real-time strategy game. Two teams of robots roam the screen managing resources and attacking each other with different kinds of weapons. However, in BattleCode each robot functions autonomously; under the hood it runs a Java virtual machine loaded up with its team's player program. Robots in the game communicate by radio and must work together to accomplish their goals.

Teams of one to four students enter are given the BattleCode software and a specification of the game rules. Each team develops a player program, which will be run by each of their robots during BattleCode matches. Contestants often use artificial intelligence, pathfinding, distributed algorithms, and/or network communications to write their player. At the final tournaments, the autonomous players are pitted against each other in a dramatic head-to-head tournament. The final rounds of the MIT tournament are played out in front of a live audience, with the top teams receiving cash prizes.

BattleCode 在行动。

你基本上得到了麻省理工学院的 BattleCode 软件，你的学生可以为他们的机器人编写人工智能程序。他们有一个测试套件，所以你可以在练习场上练习自己运行你的自主机器人。临近学期末，他们可以进入 MIT's Open Tournament ，在那里他们与他们的软件 AI 机器人与全国各地的学校竞争。高达 40,000 美元的现金和奖品以及获胜的吹嘘权将被赠送。

如果您想教他们 AI , Pathfinding , Swarm Intelligence等等。我想不出更有趣的方法。

愿最好的人工智能机器人获胜!
