Steal-Split Tournament

Steal-Split Tournament is an Intelligent Steal-Split Game developed as part of the course "Programación de Sistemas Inteligentes" in the Telecommunications Engineering Degree at the Universidad de Vigo (2024 - 2025).

About The Project

This project implements a multi-agent simulation of a Steal-Split tournament, where autonomous agents compete by making strategic financial decisions. It integrates AI techniques such as Q-Learning and Self-Organizing Maps, alongside the fundamentals of GUI development for user interaction.

The project features:

• Multi-agent system using JADE.
• Steal-Split decision-making framework.
• Adaptative strategies based on past interactions.
• Structured tournament format with real-time performance tracking.
• User-friendly interface for easy interaction and visualization.

How To Run

The following instructions are for Windows only. If you are using another operating system, you will need to download the appropiate JavaFX version for your system and adjust the compilation and execution commands accordingly.

Compilation

Make sure you have a Java JDK installed on your system. Then compile all Java classes and generate the .class files with:

javac -p lib/javafx/lib --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml -cp 'lib/jade.jar;lib/javafx/lib' -d bin src/*.java src/agents/*.java

This command creates the compiled files inside the bin/ directory.

Execution

Once compiled, you can run the system with:

java -p lib/javafx/lib --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml -cp 'lib/jade.jar;bin;src/resources' jade.Boot -agents 'MainAgent:MainAgent[;Agent1:agents.Agent1Class[;Agent2:agents.Agent2Class[;...]]]'

Agents

Option	Description	Example
RandomAgent	Selects actions randomly without a predefined strategy	Agent1:agents.RandomAgent
RL_Agent	Uses reinforcement learning to adapt based on past interactions	Agent2:agents.RL_Agent
NN_Agent	Implements a neural network-based decision model for complex strategies	Agent3:agents.NN_Agent

Example

java -p lib/javafx/lib --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml -cp 'lib/jade.jar;bin;src/resources' jade.Boot -agents 'MainAgent:MainAgent;Agent1:agents.RandomAgent;Agent2:agents.RL_Agent;Agent3:agents.NN_Agent'
