Do you want to program your own Super Mario bot, that makes use of
the
latest AI techniques (or your favorite dirty hacks) to guide Mario
through challenging levels?

Are you ready to compete with researchers and programmers from around
the world?
The IGIC 2011 Mario AI Competition will be held in November 2011.

The competition is the extended successor to last year's Mario AI
competition, which attracted the attention of leading international
news media and from which the video of the winning entry has been
shown more than 600.000 times on YouTube.

This conference has two tracks:
- Gameplay track, where the goal is to submit an agent that can make
Mario survive through a number of increasingly difficult levels. This
track is similar to last year's competition, but includes much more
difficult levels. Organized by Sergey Karakovskiy and Julian
Togelius.
- Learning track, where the agent needs to learn how to play a
particular level optimally during a number of attempts. Organized by
Sergey Karakovskiy and Julian Togelius.

The deadline for the IGIC phase edition of the championship is
November 1st;

class projects. We're looking forward to see your entry in the
competition!

IGIC program is going to be one of the best,
