Does mapping elites illuminate search spaces? A large-scale user study of MAP--Elites applied to human--AI collaborative design

no code implementations30 Jan 2024 Sean P. Walton, Ben J. Evans, Alma A. M. Rahat, James Stovold, Jakub Vincalek

Although there is some evidence that the MAP-Elites provide higher-quality individual recommendations, neither study provides convincing evidence that these recommendations have a more positive influence on the design process than simply a random selection of designs.

Evaluating Mixed-Initiative Procedural Level Design Tools using a Triple-Blind Mixed-Method User Study

1 code implementation15 May 2020 Sean P. Walton, Alma A. M. Rahat, James Stovold

A rigorous user study was designed which compared the experiences of designers using the mixed-initiative tool to designers who were given a tool which provided completely random level suggestions.
