Passing a Hide and Seek Turing Test

• Author / Creator

• Hiding and seeking are cognitive abilities frequently demonstrated by humans in
  both real life and video games. To test to which extent this ability can be replicated
  by Artificial Intelligence, we introduce a specialized version of the Turing test for
  hiding and seeking. We then develop an agent that passes the test by appearing
  indistinguishable from human behavior to a panel of human judges. We analyze the
  artificial intelligence techniques that enable the agent to capture human hide and
  seek behavior and their relative contribution to the agent’s performance.
