Core functions of Tencent AI Arena
Focusing on the game environment of "Honor of Kings", we will offer various research resources to AI researchers.
Gamecore
Tencent AI Arena has made available the game core API, the data interface for reading Honor of Kings game test scenes and controlling characters' behavior.The function allows researchers to test their new algorithms and models quickly and easily.
Computing Platforms
Tencent AI Arena can provide computing platforms and computing resources to academic researchers in need. The resources are based on Tencent Cloud's computing and big data processing platforms and can be used to train algorithms and models in reinforcement learning and imitation learning.
Assessment Tools
Tencent AI Arena provides game matchmaking tools and game replay tools based on Linux, allowing researchers to debug easily during development, and evaluate the performance of new algorithms as well as models quickly and efficiently.
Integrated Services
The Tencent AI Arena website platform is flexible and easy to use, offering functions such as intensive training, match management, video management, introductory guide and well-documented APIs, which can provide researchers with high-quality and efficient management services.
Honor of Kings
The Ideal Testing Ground for Game AI
The Ideal Testing Ground for Game AI
The more complex the environments, the smarter the AI could be trained within. Meanwhile, the focus of game AI research has shifted from board games to more complex games, such as non-perfect information games (e.g., poker) and strategic video games (e.g., MOBA and RTS games). The complexity of Honor of Kings, one of the most successful mobile MOBA games today with hundreds of millions of players, provides an ideal testing ground for game AI.
Complex game scenes
The map of Honor of Kings is large and rich in elements, and the fog of war could partially obscure game status. Unlike Go, it could not provide complete global real-time information.
Cooperation Toward the Infinite Possibilities of Artificial Intelligence
In the MOBA game environment, there still are lots of unresolved difficulties, including the exploration of diversity in reinforcement learning, Lineup ban/pick strategy, the migration of multi-character extensions, and the problem of model distillation between reinforcement learning and imitation learning.
With the Tencent AI Arena platform, we hope to engage more universities and researchers with interest to discuss and study such challenges and take a step forward in applying the new techniques and methods explored in the game environment to real-world problems in our daily lives.
