Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) is a rapidly growing field with a wide range of
applications. In this paper, a thorough examination of the research landscape in GAI is …

The use of procedural content generation (PCG) techniques in game development has been
mostly restricted to very specific types of game elements. PCG has seldom been deployed …

The Level Generation Competition, part of the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society (CIS)-
sponsored 2010 Mario AI Championship, was to our knowledge the world's first procedural …

We describe and compare several methods for generating game character controllers that
mimic the playing style of a particular human player, or of a population of human players …

Procedural content generation has become a popular research topic in recent years.
However, most content generation systems are specialized to a single game. We are …

This chapter addresses a specific type of game content, the dungeon, and a number of
commonly used methods for generating such content. These methods are all “constructive” …

Launchpad is an autonomous level generator that is based on a formal model of 2-D
platformer level design. Levels are built out of small segments called “rhythm groups,” which …

There is an increasing demand to improve the procedural generation of game levels. Our
approach empowers game designers to author and control level generators, by expressing …

Statistical models, such as Markov chains, have recently started to be studied for the
purpose of Procedural Content Generation (PCG). A major problem with this approach is …

Procedural content generation and design patterns could potentially be combined in several
different ways in game design. This paper discusses how to combine the two, using …
