Competitions: Call for Participation

Competitions provide an ideal opportunity for you  to test your algorithms and architectures and compare them  against the best that other researchers around the globe  can offer.  The CEC game-related competitions will remain  open until just before the conference.  The winner of each competition  will get to present their methods in a special competition session,  receive a USD500 prize and certificate to be presented at the conference  banquet, and get a mention in IEEE Computational Intelligence Magazine.

There are four games: Neural Network Othello, Car Racing, Ms. Pac-Man, and X-Pilot AI.

The first two are relatively straightforward to enter, while the latter two require more programming effort.  All are great fun, and scientifically interesting.

We warmly encourage you to participate, and make these a great success.
