Dear all,

The newly formed group on Game AI (http://gameai.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) is hiring a Software Developer for a new project, in conjunction with Microsoft Research Cambridge, on the development of a new Game AI Competition using the Malmo Framework. 


Concretely, the Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning in MalmO (Marlo) competition is a new challenge that proposes research on Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning using multiple games. Participants would create learning agents that will be able to play multiple 3D games as defined in the Minecraft Malmo platform. The aim of the competition is to encourage AI research on more general approaches via multi-player games. For this, the challenge will consist of not one but several games, each one of them with several tasks of varying difficulty and settings. 



The post is for 6 months full time at £36,677 per annum incl. London allowance. The holder of the position will work on the development of the framework and the competition servers, in conjunction with the steering committee of the competition, formed by Katja Hoffman and Noburu Kuno (Microsoft Research), Sharada P. Mohanty (EPF Lausanne) and Diego Perez-Liebana (QMUL).
