Improving Bidding and Playing Strategies in the Trick-Taking game Wizard using Deep Q-Networks

Jonas Schumacher, Marco Pleines

In this work, the trick-taking game Wizard with a separate bidding and playing phase is modeled by two interleaved partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDP). Deep Q-Ne…

On the Verge of Solving Rocket League using Deep Reinforcement Learning and Sim-to-sim Transfer

Marco Pleines, Konstantin Ramthun, Yannik Wegener +12

Autonomously trained agents that are supposed to play video games reasonably well rely either on fast simulation speeds or heavy parallelization across thousands of machines runnin…

Generalization, Mayhems and Limits in Recurrent Proximal Policy Optimization

Marco Pleines, Matthias Pallasch, Frank Zimmer +1

At first sight it may seem straightforward to use recurrent layers in Deep Reinforcement Learning algorithms to enable agents to make use of memory in the setting of partially obse…

Obstacle Tower Without Human Demonstrations: How Far a Deep Feed-Forward Network Goes with Reinforcement Learning

Marco Pleines, Jenia Jitsev, Mike Preuss +1

The Obstacle Tower Challenge is the task to master a procedurally generated chain of levels that subsequently get harder to complete. Whereas the most top performing entries of las…
