This repository houses some of my machine learning projects. I also use machine learning in many of my publications (example: https://link.springer.com/article/10.3758/s13428-019-01235-z ; free version https://psyarxiv.com/arf4t).
There are more than a hundred thousand strategy games on the app store, more than any human can understand and summarize. A game developer may want to know about the kinds of games available to inform game design, marketing, and pricing. I find that there are 8 main kinds of strategy games on the app store. I find this by performing natural language processing analyses on the text descriptions of these games, specifically using:
- Word embeddings (spacy)
- Dimensionality reduction (using a new neural network-based technique: Ivis, Szubert et al 2019, Nature Human Behav., https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-019-45301-0)
- Clustering (kmeans++)
