Learning Controllable 3D Level Generators

2022-06-27 · Zehua Jiang, Sam Earle, Michael Cerny Green, Julian Togelius

Procedural Content Generation via Reinforcement Learning (PCGRL) foregoes the need for large human-authored data-sets and allows agents to train explicitly on functional constraints, using computable, user-defined measures of quality instead of target output. We explore the application of PCGRL to 3D domains, in which content-generation tasks naturally have greater complexity and potential pertinence to real-world applications. Here, we introduce several PCGRL tasks for the 3D domain, Minecraft (Mojang Studios, 2009). These tasks will challenge RL-based generators using affordances often found in 3D environments, such as jumping, multiple dimensional movement, and gravity. We train an agent to optimize each of these tasks to explore the capabilities of previous research in PCGRL. This agent is able to generate relatively complex and diverse levels, and generalize to random initial states and control targets. Controllability tests in the presented tasks demonstrate their utility to analyze success and failure for 3D generators.

Start Small: Training Controllable Game Level Generators without Training Data by Learning at Multiple Sizes

2022-09-29 · Yahia Zakaria, Magda Fayek, Mayada Hadhoud

A level generator is a tool that generates game levels from noise. Training a generator without a dataset suffers from feedback sparsity, since it is unlikely to generate a playable level via random exploration. A common…
