Description
In this seminar, we focus the programming of an artificial intelligence (AI) player for a communication game called “Are You a Werewolf?” (AIWolf). We present the Werewolf game as a standard game problem in the AI field, and it is similar to game problems such as Chess, Shogi, Go, and Poker. Compared to the previous game-related challenges, the communication or communicative intelligence skills that are commonly used in board games and card games have not been examined. When people play board games and card games, they converse with other players, and some games are advanced through conversation as so-called communication games. Few studies in the literature have analyzed artificial intelligence in relation to such communication games. “Are You a Werewolf?” is one of these communication games.
This game is a communication game that requires several AI technologies such as multi-agent coordination, intentional reading, and understanding of the theory of mind. Analyzing and solving the Werewolf game as a standard problem will provide useful results for our research field and its applications. Similar to the RoboCup project, the goal of this project is to determine new themes while creating a communicative AI player that can play the Werewolf game with humans. As an initial step, we designed a platform to develop a game-playing AI for a competition.
Detail information on AIWolf project is on http://aiwolf.org/ site.
