This paper proposes a method to learn action patterns of opponent characters for intelligent characters. For learning action patterns, intelligent characters learn the past actions as well as the current actions of opponent characters. Therefore, intelligent characters react more properly than ones without the knowledge on action patterns. In addition, this paper proposes a method to learn moving actions whose fitness is hard to evaluate. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, we experiment with four repeated action patterns in a game similar to real games. The results show that intelligent characters learn the optimal actions for action patterns and react properly against to random action opponent characters. The proposed method can be applied to various games in which characters confront each other, e.g. massively multiple of line games.

In this paper, we address the challenging computer vision problem of obtaining a reliable facial expression analysis from a naturally interacting person. We propose a system that combines a 3D generic face model, 3D head tracking, and 2D tracker to track facial landmarks and recognize expressions. First, we extract facial landmarks from a neutral frontal face, and then we deform a 3D generic face to fit the input face. Next, we use our real-time 3D head tracking module to track a person's head in 3D and predict facial landmark positions in 2D using the projection from the updated 3D face model. Finally, we use tracked 2D landmarks to update the 3D landmarks. This integrated tracking loop enables efficient tracking of the non-rigid parts of a face in the presence of large 3D head motion. We conducted experiments for facial expression recognition using both framebased and sequence-based approaches. Our method provides a 75.9% recognition rate in 8 subjects with 7 key expressions. Our approach provides a considerable step forward toward new applications including human-computer interactions, behavioral science, robotics, and game applications.

In this paper, a marathon of a humanoid robot is introduced, and its strategy is proposed. In order to develop humanoid robots for the purpose of cooperation and symbiosis with humans, the technologies such as increasing operating time and stability or recognizing surrounding environment are more important. One proper research model for the technologies is a human's marathon. In this paper, we introduce the human's marathon, and propose the humanoid robot's marathon. The marathon event of HuroCup has the most similar game rules to the human's marathon. The humanoid robot developed with the proper operating time, stability and ability to recognize the surrounding environment performed the marathon in HuroCup. The robot recognizes a marathon track using a computer vision, and builds the strategies for the race competition. By analyzing the experimental results, the humanoid robot performed in a real competition.

This paper proposes a goal oriented action planning method that plans the behaviors of computer generated forces and a replanning method that replans new actions when the situations are changed in war game. This new method provides good expression because it is flexible and can do more realized description unlike the conventional finite state machines. As a result, proposed method has an advantage that it can describe the behaviors of computer generated forces as those of real soldier. However, since it is not deterministic it has some difficulties in analysing the decision processing of behaviors and making the computer generated forces do some specific actions. We employed combat plane models of air forces in order to verify the feasibility of our method. Finally, we could find that our method produced very similar behaviors to those of a real soldier. This paper describes our planning method, experimental results, and future works.

This study is the research tendency(2016~2019) on the content and the intelligent information technology. After the IIT emerged as a social topic, related research increased, and interest in VR and AR was the highest. In games, more research has been done on VR and AR. In the case of big data technology, it was a tendency to pay attention to the study of movie contents. Many studies have attempted a technological approach to IIT. With regard to artificial intelligence technology, there were differences by technology and content area, mainly viewed from a legal and institutional perspective.

Some innovative researchers have had a dream of self-thinking intelligent computer. Alphago, at last, showed its possibility. With it, most computer engineers including even students can learn easily how to do it. As the interest to the deep learning has been growing, people's expectation is also naturally growing. In this research, we tried to enhance the game ability of a 7-poker system by applying machine learning techniques. In addition, we also tried to apply emotion analysis of a player to trace ones emotional changes. Methods and outcomes are to be explained in this paper.

This paper proposes an implementation method of intelligent characters that can properly adapt to action patterns of opponent characters in fighting games by using genetic algorithm. For this intelligent characters, past actions patterns of opponent characters should be included in the learning process. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, two types of experiments are performed and their results are compared. In first experiment(exp-1), intelligent characters consider current action and its step of an opponent character. In second experiment (exp-2), on the other hands, they take past actions of an opponent characters into account additionally. As a performance index, the ratio of score obtained by an intelligent character to that of an opponent character is adopted. Experimental results shows that even if the performance index of exp-1 is better than that of exp-2 at the beginning of stages, but the performance index of exp-2 outperforms that of exp-1 as stages go on. Moreover, optimum solutions are always found in all experimental cases in exp-2. Futhermore, intelligent characters in exp-2 could learn moving actions (forward and backward) and waiting actions for getting more scores through self evolution.

As the development of IT technology and Web services have changed recently, education environment combined with high-tech digital content is becoming a new trend with the demands of educational consumers. In Korea, however, there is no systematic discussion on the issue, and there is not enough evidence to verify the effectiveness of the research. Therefore, we will systematically analyze the educational effects of Digital Storytelling to create an educational environment that meets the new horizon of intelligent web and personalized service provision in the Web3.0 era, In this study, 12 domestic experimental studies that verify the educational effects of digital storytelling were systematically analyzed, compared with overseas cases, and proposed development plans in the Web3.0 era.

게임의 재미요소를 증대 시키고, 게임 생명주기(Life-Cycle)를 늘어나게 하기 위해 다양한 방법이 연구 중이다. 현실감 있는 그래픽 효과와 뛰어난 음향 효과 등과 함께 게임 플레이어의 게임 스타일이 반영된 게임을 만들기 위한 방법이 대표적이 예라 할 수 있다. 그 중 게임 플레이어의 스타일을 게임에 다시 이용하기 위해서는 플레이어의 인지과정이 요구되며, 인지된 결과를 이용하여 플레이어를 모델링(User Modeling)한다. 하지만, 게임의 종류와 특성에 따라 다양한 게임이 존재하기 때문에 플레이어를 모델링하기 어렵다는 문제를 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 게임에서 정의된 FSM(Finite State machine)을 이용하여 플레이어가 선택한 행동 패턴을 분석하고 적용하는 방법과 다양한 게임에서 이용 할 수 있는 스크립트 형태의 NPC 행동 패턴 변경 방법을 제안한다. 플레이어의 데이터를 분석하여 얻은 결과는 FSM을 변경하여 새로운 행동을 보이는 NPC(Non-Player Characters)를 생성하는데 사용되며, 이 캐릭터는 게임의 특성과 플레이어의 최신 행동 패턴 경향을 학습한 적용형 NPC라 할 수 있다. 실험을 통하여 사용자의 행동과 유사한 패턴을 보이는 NPC의 생성을 확인할 수 있었으며, 게임에서 상대적인 또는 적대적인 캐릭터로 유용하게 사용 될 수 있다.

In this paper, using the bargaining game theory, we propose a bandwidth management scheme that allocates bandwidth in an efficient and proportionally fair manner between the service classes with different service requirements. Since the traffic input rates of the classes are asymmetric in most of the time, the proposed scheme allocates bandwidth in proportion to the traffic input rates to increase the bandwidth utilization while protecting the quality of service of a class against the excessive traffic input of the other classes. In addition, the proposed method considers the weights of classes so that the bandwidth is allocated differentially among the classes.
