Automated video games evaluation based on the template formalism
François Nel, Marc Damez, Nicolas Labroche and Marie-Jeanne Lesot.
This paper proposes a new approach
for video game evaluation, based on
a hierarchical model of quality criteria,
in the framework of the template
formalism: the latter offers a
principled aggregation methodology
to combine elementary and directly
evaluable criteria into more complex
properties until the global quality
of a game can be assessed. We
propose a structured organisation of
existing video game quality criteria,
and its implementation in the
template formalism. The first experiments
performed with real data
show this model constitutes a relevant
and powerful tool that provides
interpretable assessment results consistent
with expert evaluations.
