Human-Like Goalkeeping in a Realistic Football Simulation: a Sample-Efficient Reinforcement Learning Approach

arXiv:2510. 23216v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: While several high profile video games have served as testbeds for Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL), this technique has rarely been employed by the game industry for crafting authentic AI behaviors.

Monte Carlo Pass Search: Using Trajectory Generation for 3D Counterfactual Pass Evaluation in Football

arXiv:2606. 11120v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We recast pass evaluation in football (soccer) as a Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS)-like evaluation problem whose components mostly exist in the literature under different names: a value model (possession value), a world model (multi-agent trajectories with ball interactions), and a policy over counterfactual actions (sampling pass variants with noise).

Disentangled Skill Representations for Predictive Human Modeling

The paper introduces Skill Abstraction with Interpretable Latents (SAIL), a method that models human skill as a persistent, multi‑dimensional construct inferred from naturalistic behavior over time. SAIL produces a robust skill embedding that blends expert and novice bases, learns transferable subskills through counterfactual subskill swaps, and supports skill‑informed behavior prediction across various in‑domain contexts. Experiments on racing and baseball demonstrate that SAIL achieves strong predictive performance, improves behaviorally grounded disentanglement compared to baselines, and enhances downstream AI coaching outcomes.
