  • Patent number: 11376502
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and computer-readable media for adjudicating incidents between players within a simulation environment (e.g., a gaming environment). For example, systems disclosed herein involve training an adjudication model trained to evaluate player data from a plurality of player states over time to determine whether one or more players are at fault for an identified incident within the simulation environment. The systems disclosed herein can maintain a dynamic circular buffer that provides a snapshot of the player data over a predetermined period of time and which provides a scalable and computationally efficient mechanism for evaluating player data for multiple players to determine whether one or more players are violating rules within the simulation environment.
    Type: Grant
