Abstract

Computational intelligence competitions have recently gained a lot of interest. These contests motivate and encourage researchers to participate on them. Computer games are interesting test beds for research in artificial intelligence that motivate researchers to apply their work areas to specific games. In this paper a structural parameter set of a car agent is optimised using particle swarm optimisation and evolution strategies. The change was for were to the TORCS competition held during the Car Setup Optimization Competition EvoStar 2010.
