IJCAI-ECAI 2022 AI Olympics Competition

Background

As reinforcement learning gradually becoming the hottest topic in the academic field of artificial intelligence, the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences will hold an agent competition at IJCAI-ECAI 2022 - AI Olympics Competition, to further promote the development of reinforcement learning research.

Developing one agent to participate variant Olympics games is an interesting and challenging task. In this competition, participants are going to use various methods in artificial intelligence to develop agents playing different Olympics games. Different games have different rules and goals. Thus, the developed agents are going to be able to be generalized in order to play well on different games.

Environment

We provide the integrated Olympics environment as competition envionrment, which combines different subgames. The subgames are running, table hockey, football, wrestling, etc.

  • In running, the goal is to reach the end as fast as possible in a randomly selected map.
  • In table hockey, agents need to hit the ball into the opponent's goal through collision and prevent their own goal from being broken, but they can only move freely in their own half court.
  • In football, agents share the same objective as in table hockey except that they can move freely on the court.
  • In wrestling, the agent who knocks others out of bounds while keeping staying in bounds wins the game.
  • The evaluation of the competition is going to use this envionrment to run different subgames in random order to test the submitted agents.
