  • Interaction based skill measurement for players of a video game
    Patent number: 12168182
    Abstract: Skill measurement systems and methods include interaction pairs and an interaction uncertainty. The interaction pairs are pairwise matches corresponding to instances of interactions between players. The interaction uncertainty variable corresponds to the instance of interaction and is based in part on the uncertainties of a player, player team, and/or gameplay aspects. The interaction pairs and interaction uncertainty are used to more accurately determine a skill rating of a player based in part on interaction data among gameplay data from a gameplay session of a video game.
