Projects
Poker AI
We consult with professional poker players and build poker bots for a variety of poker variants. Formerly apart of the University of Alberta's renowned Computer Poker Research Group, we use the same technology behind the world's best poker bots. We also provide software tools for analyzing the bots' strategies. Unlike other tools on the market, our bots report game-theoretic optimal strategies for not just the post-flop play, but for the pre-flop too. Want to know the correct range to call an opening min raise from the big blind heads-up? We can tell you.
Video Game Development
We provide game development support for companies looking to boost their coding force. Our latest efforts have helped improve Super Mega Baseball 2. We have integrated new gameplay features, such as strategic defensive positioning, and improved AI decision-making, such as when to pull the pitcher for a pinch hitter. We have also applied our mathematical expertise to optimally balance and diversify the game's fictional teams, as well as design a novel matchmaking system to ensure online matches are as fair and competitive as possible.
Future Projects
The algorithms we use are general enough to be applied to many domains, such as strategy video games, professional sports, and fantasy sports. While rule-based and statistic-based approaches are commonly used in these fields, we believe our game-theoretic approach is superior. Our goal is to continue to create improved AI opponents in video games, shed new light on how to effectively coach and manage a professional sports team, and defeat the competition in fantasy sports.
