Learning Agents - Training AI Characters Using Machine Learning in Unreal Engine

Explore a 38-minute conference session from Unreal Fest Seattle 2024 that delves into the capabilities of Learning Agents, an innovative Unreal Engine plugin designed for training AI characters through machine learning techniques. Discover how to leverage reinforcement learning (RL) and imitation learning (IL) approaches to enhance or completely replace traditional game AI systems like behavior trees and state machines. Learn about the plugin's extensive potential applications, from developing sophisticated physics-based animations and creating intelligent NPCs to implementing automated QA testing procedures. Gain insights into the future possibilities of AI character development in game design through practical demonstrations and expert explanations of machine learning implementation within the Unreal Engine environment.
