Call for Participation
IJCAI 2013 Angry Birds AI Competition
http://www.aibirds.org <http://www.aibirds.org/>
Beijing, China, 6-9 August 2013
***************************************************************
Angry Birds is a popular video game where players shoot birds in order
to destroy pigs protected by complicated structures. The task of this
competition is to develop an intelligent Angry Birds playing agent that
is able to successfully play the game autonomously and without human
intervention. The long term goal is to build AI agents that can play new
levels better than the best human players. In order to successfully
solve this challenge, participants can benefit from combining different
areas of AI such as computer vision, knowledge representation and
reasoning, planning, heuristic search, and machine learning.
Successfully integrating methods from these areas is one of the great
challenges of AI.
Game Playing Software
==================
The organizers have provided a basic game playing software and a sample
agent. Participants are free to adapt this software. The software can be
downloaded at http://www.aibirds.org <http://www.aibirds.org/>. On this
website, we also offer a
discussion forum for participants, benchmarks and other relevant
information.
Prizes
=====
The teams of the three best agents will receive a prize as well as a
certificate.
* First prize: USD 1500
* Second prize: USD 1000
* Third prize: USD 500
All participants of the finals will also receive a certificate.
Symposium on AI in Angry Birds
=========================
During the competition, there will be an opportunity to present original
scientific work related to the problems of developing an Angry Birds
playing agent. Please refer to the Call for Papers at
