• Abstract summary: We report on an Artificial Intelligence (AI) enabled solution for predicting the eSports player in-game performance using exclusively the data from sensors. The player performance is assessed from the game logs in a multiplayer game for each moment of time using a recurrent neural network. The proposed solution has a number of promising applications for Pro eSports teams as well as a learning tool for amateur players.

• Abstract: The emerging progress of eSports lacks the tools for ensuring high-quality analytics and training in Pro and amateur eSports teams. We report on an Artificial Intelligence (AI) enabled solution for predicting the eSports player in-game performance using exclusively the data from sensors. For this reason, we collected the physiological, environmental, and the game chair data from Pro and amateur players. The player performance is assessed from the game logs in a multiplayer game for each moment of time using a recurrent neural network. We have investigated that attention mechanism improves the generalization of the network and provides the straightforward feature importance as well. The best model achieves ROC AUC score 0.73. The prediction of the performance of particular player is realized although his data are not utilized in the training set. The proposed solution has a number of promising applications for Pro eSports teams as well as a learning tool for amateur players.

  We argue that AI systems should be trained in a human-centered manner, directly optimized for team performance. We study this proposal for a specific type of human-AI teaming, where the human overseer chooses to either accept the AI recommendation or solve the task themselves. Our experiments with linear and non-linear models on real-world, high-stakes datasets show that the most accuracy AI may not lead to highest team performance.
