TorchCraft: a Library for Machine Learning Research on Real-Time Strategy Games.

We present TorchCraft, a library that enables deep learning research on Real-TimeStrategy (RTS) games such as StarCraft: Brood War, by making it easier to control thesegames from a machine learning framework, here Torch [9]. This white paper argues forusing RTS games as a benchmark for AI research, and describes the design and componentsof TorchCraft.
