PAC-MAN Recreated with AI by NVIDIA Researchers

The PAC Man at 40 years of age is still an intensive research object!



" ... “We were blown away when we saw the results, in disbelief that AI could recreate the iconic PAC-MAN experience without a game engine ...” ... No matter the game, the GAN can learn its rules simply by ingesting screen recordings and agent keystrokes from past game play. Game developers could use such a tool to automatically design new level layouts for existing games, using screenplay from the original levels as training data."



PAC-MAN Recreated with AI by NVIDIA Researchers | NVIDIA Blog GameGAN, a generative adversarial network trained on 50,000 PAC-MAN episodes, produces a fully functional version of the dot-munching classic without an underlying game engine.



Here is the preprint research paper behind this:
