Conducted independent research related to artificial intelligence. Developed Evolving Boss program that creates unique AI behaviors within game environment through evolving graph of artificial neural networks using elitism. AIs adapt to behaviors of opponents and approach most optimized way to defeat them. The ultimate goal was to train bosses to act optimally against generic opponent behaviors that human player might have, while still remaining flawed enough to be humanly defeated.
