Abstract This project aims to study the application of evolutionary algorithms - Genetic Programming initially - in the automatic evolution of behavior trees of an intelligent agent, which determine the actions to be taken in accordance with the current configuration of the environment. The intelligent agent that will be studied in this project is an implementation in the framework for study of artificial intelligence tools called "The AI Sandbox" (TAS). This agent is the commander of a small military squad that acts against another squad in a security exercise known as "Capture The Flag" (CTF), in which the goal is to capture and bring the enemy flag to the Allied camp. For the intelligent agent can accomplish this task, a behavior tree will be evolved based on a behavior tree of an existing commander in the tool. One aims to assess the ability of the Genetic Programming technique to evolve one or more behavior trees that outperform the original one. | |
