Playing real-time strategy games by imitating human players’ micromanagement skills based on spatial analysis

作者:

Highlights:

• Imitating human micromanagement skills from a massive number of game cases.

• The influence map was adopted to analyze the influence of units spatially.

• Imitation learning with a very large number of cases (up to 500,000 cases).

• Imitation learning responds in real-time, with a high winning percentage.

• Outperforming competitive entries from StarCraft competitions for combat situations.
