Automated Video Game Testing Using Synthetic and Human-Like Agents
Arıyürek, Sinan; Betin Can, Aysu; Sürer, Elif (2019-10-01)
We present a new methodology that employs tester agents to automate video game testing. We introduce two types of agents —synthetic and human-like. Our agents are derived from Sarsa and MCTS but focus on finding defects while traditional game-playing agents focus on maximizing game scores. The synthetic agent uses test goals generated from game scenarios, and these goals are further modified to examine the effects of unintended game transitions. The human-like agent uses test goals extracted by our proposed...
Automated Video Game Testing Using Synthetic and Human-Like Agents
Arıyürek, Sinan; Betin Can, Aysu; Sürer, Elif (2019-06-01)
In this paper, we present a new methodology that employs tester agents to automate video game testing. We introduce two types of agents -synthetic and human-like- and two distinct approaches to create them. Our agents are derived from Reinforcement Learning (RL) and Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) agents, but focus on finding defects. The synthetic agent uses test goals generated from game scenarios, and these goals are further modified to examine the effects of unintended game transitions. The human-like ag...
Automated biological data acquisition and integration using machine learning techniques
Çarkacıoğlu, Levent; Atalay, Mehmet Volkan; Department of Computer Engineering (2009)
Since the initial genome sequencing projects along with the recent advances on technology, molecular biology and large scale transcriptome analysis result in data accumulation at a large scale. These data have been provided in different platforms and come from different laboratories therefore, there is a need for compilation and comprehensive analysis. In this thesis, we addressed the automatization of biological data acquisition and integration from these non-uniform data using machine learning techniques....
Automated Sizing of Truss Structures Using a Computationally Improved SOPT Algorithm
Hasançebi, Oğuzhan (2013-06-01)
The present study attempts to apply an efficient yet simple optimization (SOPT) algorithm to optimum design of truss structures under stress and displacement constraints. The computational efficiency of the technique is improved through avoiding unnecessary analyses during the course of optimization using the so-called upper bound strategy (UBS). The efficiency of the UBS integrated SOPT algorithm is evaluated through benchmark sizing optimization problems of truss structures and the numerical results are r...
