AI In Video Games - 23 Oct 2002

Intelligent Agents in Game Design
Good introduction to the definition of intelligent agents, but how does
this relate to the title of your presentation?  We would like to see more
depth to this section of the presentation.  Explain more about R&D in this area,
more applications of agents, and also limitations of current agents.

Path Finding In Computer Games
Good introduction to path finding algorithms. You'd make your CS381 professor
proud ;)  This section of the presentation was very well prepared. The speaker 
was knowledgeable about his topic, and presented enthusiastically.
Note: Where are your slides? They are not with the rest of the presentation
on your team website.

Traditional Implementations
Some games were mentioned and briefly explained, but none were discussed in
enough detail.   If you are not a regular player of the games mentioned, some
of the presentation isn't clear.  Don't assume that we have all played Baldur's Gate!   

Neural Networking
Very brief, and not too in depth, but this may be the case because another
team did a presentation on neural networking.  This section could have been
either more in depth, or cut out of the presentation (and instead you could 
have focused more on other topics that were presented in more depth). 
Great job with the tank example!

Fuzzy Logic
Good introduction to fuzzy logic.  This section of the presentation is more
in depth than the others.  It would have been nice to have seen more 
examples of applications to computer games.  


Overall Presentation Review
There are quite a few subtopics presented.  Some of the topics seemed to be 
carefully chosen and discussed in depth, yet others were not sufficiently
explained.  It might be better to cut out a few of the topics, and focus 
more in depth on the topics remaining.  For future presentations, it might also
be better to focus on one video game using AI, giving an in depth explanation 
of how the AI is implemented.
