VLMs for Videogame Data Annotation
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.05949v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision Language Models (VLMs) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) agents have revolutionized how engineers approach complex problems in real-world applications. Their adoption in video games is on the other hand limited by the extreme variability of the synthetic scenarios and their poor compliance with real-world physics. Here we investigate the use of VLMs for annotating video game frame sequences with reward signals, a task with several potential applications including, among others, conditioned training and offline reinforcement learning.
