    • It mainly knew how to try for strikes, probably because it had way more opportunities to attempt them and the reward was greater. My guess is that the algorithm would figure out getting spares eventually. It'd just take a lot longer, both because of fewer opportunities to learn and because it would always be in competition with continued improvement in getting strikes. A perfect AI would never need to bowl for spares in the first place.

    • You have no idea how big of a problem that is. If it does one thing so perfectly that it never gets to experience anomalies. That's an inherent problem with fixed data inputs from simulated environments. That's why Tesla is using customer driving data to train their AI, the real-world data is extremely varied, potential inputs are limitless. They are teaching it the entire visual human experience and letting the NNs figure out how to navigate those experiences as safely as possible. It will be awesome to see the final NN in place, planning and control. Exciting.

    • It's simply not trained to handle incomplete pin sets. Since most of its throws are strikes, and they normally get rewarded more, it probably doesn't find any real value in training that specific rare scenario.

  • As a bowler myself, this is hilarious. By the way, it might have been helpful to include information on which pins are standing as an input to the system. Then it might stand a chance at getting spares somewhat consistently. Bowling scoring is very strange, but basically it heavily punishes leaving an "open" frame, meaning you didn't get a strike or spare. This means that being able to pick up your spares is super important for good scores. Another thing to consider is that the hand can act like a lever, allowing you to release your thumb first, then use your fingers to add rotation to the ball. If the model had some sort of basic "hand" that essentially has hold of the ball in two locations, that might allow it to add a fair bit of rotation. Also, did you consider adding oil to the lane? A standard bowling lane will have oil applied to it, with most of it in the first 40 feet and biased toward the center of the lane. Then you could increase the friction between the ball and the surface to compensate.

  • The drastic strategy changes when there were only a few pins remaining is a testament to how well you tuned the reward parameters. If the reward for knocking down pins hadn't been tuned effectively, the AI never would've attempted spares, and instead would've just launched the ball down the center of the lane during a split to be rewarded for speed and direction. Well done!

Number of knocked down bowling pins should absolutely be a multiplier on the score. Zero pins = zero score. But even then knocking down half at superspeed might give more score that knocking down all at low speed, which is still stupid.

I typically aim to the other side of the front pin in that situation to get more direct pin movement backwards to get the sleeper. But the shot the AI took should have taken down more than the front pin.

  • The Bowler knows where his ball is is at all times. He knows this because he knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the ball from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is.

    • But a ball with spin on a complex axis (not just one of the X, Y, or Z axes) will follow a nonlinear path, as the spin axis itself is re-oriented by its friction with the floor. There would need to be some sort of polynomial algebra involved to solve for this differential, as there are a lot more than two variables (matrices, consisting of movement vector, gravity vector, spin, and floor-contact friction, in this case)

Having that in place from the first throw could have had an exponetial effect on the AI's ability to hit the pins much earlier on. Granted, it may have resulted in the AI throwing the bowling ball like a bullet, but who hasn't attempted that?

And judging from the way my friends bowl, the "flopping around the floor while flinging the ball up into the air in random directions" totally works too. Although as a spectator, you really have to learn to dodge behind the furniture and other obstacles pretty quick. Go bowling with my friends a few times, and you'll become a pro "dive behind stuff dodger". The driving range is another wonderful place where the jazz hands and diving out of the way techniques also work.

  • It's interesting seeing how it reacts to the pins. When it had a 7-10 split, it went right down the middle. But both times when it had only 1 pin up it tried to ride the right edge, even though one time the pin was on the left. I'm assuming it learned that sometimes it can pick up spares if it does that, but it's not aware of pin position so it's just going for what worked a different time. Which means that it will factor its strategy based on pins remaining, at least.

    • I was thinking more that the product of the rewards lead the doll to the behavior "aim straight, since spin is sufficient for deviations from a straight path". The doll is right-handed, so 10 pin? No problem. 7 pin? Spin it, but do not release the ball at an angle, because that virtually always leads to a bad outcome.

Yomi Hustle is a turn-based fighting game where each player is given anywhere between a few seconds to a half hour to plan out the action of their fighter down to the frame-data. The goal is to make AI that master Yomi hustle, analyze the game balance (overall win/loss ratio against all characters and best/worst win/loss ratio between them), then select a character mod and run it through to see if it fits that balance.

    • Good Idea, but 1. b2 doesnt own the rights to YOMIH 2. YOMIH is very complicated, even compared to stuff like this, as it has many, many inputs and outputs that would need to be considered 3. b2 would have to program his own version of YOMIH in order to give the AI precise inputs such as the velocity and position of the players, and it would be very difficult to make a good recreation as b2 wouldnt know the numbers to throw in for YOMIHs engine 4. The computing power required for this would also be insane, as the AI would have to predict every single scenario and weigh the likelyhood of whats gonna happen, and somehow decide as to which move would be the best, which would also require looking even more moves in the future in order to correctly see if the enemy would be able to retaliate easily, or if the AI would be able to combo them. YOMIH does seem like a good game to train an AI for, but even after hundreds of hours being put into making it, i doubt the AI would even be able to pull off basic combos, and thats not very good material for a video.

I have seen AI take on the likes Starcraft and Pokémon, complication is only a matter of his system's capacity. 3. I know that is not a strict requirement by virtue of the other games he and others have tested. It is a requirement for lesser systems, but it's far from an absolute. Even if it was though the good thing about it being a turn-based fighting game is that most of the values are evident up-front, and we've already seen him crack into games like Rocket League for specifics. 4. That is the same problem for every turn-based game from as early as chess. The goal is not to plan out every move, it is to select the most optimal within a range for the immediate situation. As for how it judges that, that's were the machine "learning" comes in, along with some basic conditions to define value. Throw moves at the wall and see what sticks. As for the computing to understand the moves, Yomi Hustle already has a built-in system to literally let you check every single move down to its frame data against every single one of the opponent's, might ease up on the burden. Yomi Hustle is only complicated in a vacuum. As long as it has the capacity comparable to that which learns the most traditional of board games, after hundreds of hours it would probably look just like them: practically impossible for humans to beat without handicaps.
