The need for data preservation and reproducible research is widely recognized in the scientific community. Yet, researchers often struggle to find the motivation to contribute to data repositories and to use tools that foster…
Games have been the perfect test-beds for artificial intelligence research for the characteristics that widely exist in real-world scenarios. Learning and optimisation, decision making in dynamic and uncertain environments, game theory,…
Within the evolving field of digital intervention, serious games emerge as promising tools for evidence-based interventions. Research indicates that gamified therapy, whether employed independently or in conjunction with online…
User simulation is an emerging interdisciplinary topic with multiple critical applications in the era of Generative AI. It involves creating an intelligent agent that mimics the actions of a human user interacting with an AI system,…
With the continuing development of affordable immersive virtual reality (VR) systems, there is now a growing market for consumer content. The current form of consumer systems is not dissimilar to the lab-based VR systems of the past 30…
Phishing continues to be a difficult problem for individuals and organisations. Educational games and simulations have been increasingly acknowledged as enormous and powerful teaching tools, yet little work has examined how to engage users…
In general, video games not only prevail in entertainment but also have become an alternative methodology for knowledge learning, skill acquisition and assistance for medical treatment as well as health care in education,…
This article identifies a gap between the existence of a various psychometric tests approaches and other team performance assessment tools (e.g. business and management games). As a response to the lack of tools able to utilize the…
Objectives: This paper presents an up-to-date overview of research performed in the Virtual Reality (VR) environment ranging from definitions, its presence in the various fields, and existing market players and their projects in the VR…
Although serious games have been increasingly used for mental health applications, few explicitly address coping with grief as a core mechanic and narrative experience for patients. Existing grief-related digital games often focus on…
Interactive multi-agent simulation algorithms are used to compute the trajectories and behaviors of different entities in virtual reality scenarios. However, current methods involve considerable parameter tweaking to generate plausible…
Experimentation is a cornerstone of successful game development and live operations, enabling teams to optimize player engagement, retention, and monetization. This article provides a comprehensive guide to implementing experimentation in…
Traditional university orientation formats struggle to convey the intellectual substance of STEM curricula, particularly in disciplines where core competencies, such as algorithmic thinking and formal reasoning, are inherently abstract.…
Particularly close attention is being paid today among researchers in social science disciplines to aspects of learning in the digital age, especially for the Digitally Native Generation. In the context of museums, the question is: how can…
Simulation is used extensively in autonomous systems, particularly in robotic manipulation. By far, the most common approach is to train a controller in simulation, and then use it as an initial starting point for the real system. We…
The integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) into Virtual Reality (VR) games marks a paradigm shift in the design of immersive, adaptive, and intelligent digital experiences. This paper presents a comprehensive review of recent research…
Recent research has focused on the effectiveness of Virtual Reality (VR) in games as a more immersive method of interaction. However, there is a lack of robust analysis of the physiological effects between VR and flatscreen (FS) gaming.…
(arXiv abridged abstract) In the last two decades, videogames have evolved in a nearly explosive way from the pixelated graphics to today's near-realistic 3D environments. The interaction devices traditionally used in videogames have not…
In games, as in and many other domains, design validation and testing is a huge challenge as systems are growing in size and manual testing is becoming infeasible. This paper proposes a new approach to automated game validation and testing.…
Video games are a natural and synergistic application domain for artificial intelligence (AI) systems, offering both the potential to enhance player experience and immersion, as well as providing valuable benchmarks and virtual environments…
