The legendary arcade game Pac-Man is turning 40 years old this year, and to celebrate, NVIDIA has trained its GameGAN AI to recreate the iconic title. That might seem like an easy task on the surface, but what’s impressive about NVIDIA’s project is that GameGAN is recreating Pac-Man without the help of a game engine or Pac-Man‘s code. Instead, the GameGAN AI is producing a fully functional version of Pac-Man just by seeing the game in action.
More specifically, GameGAN is a generative adversarial network that leverages two competing neural networks – a generator and a discriminator. Those neural networks worked together through 50,000 episodes of the game, allowing the AI to learn the rules and mechanics of Pac-Man by simply watching the episodes play out. Eventually, the AI was able to create Pac-Man levels that followed the rules of a traditional Pac-Man game.
“This is the first research to emulate a game engine using GAN-based neural networks,” Seung-Wook Kim, an NVIDIA researcher who served as lead author on this project, said in a post to the NVIDIA blog.
