Title: Recording and Describing Poker Hands
Authors: Juho Kim,
Abstract summary: Poker lacks a consistent format that humans can use to document poker hands across different variants. We propose the PHH format which provides a concise human-readable machine-friendly representation of hand history. In the supplementary, we provide 10,088 hands covering 11 different variants in the PHH format.

Abstract: This paper introduces the Poker Hand History (PHH) file format, designed to standardize the recording of poker hands across different game variants. Despite poker's widespread popularity in the mainstream culture as a mind sport and its prominence in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) research as a benchmark for imperfect information AI agents, it lacks a consistent format that humans can use to document poker hands across different variants that can also easily be parsed by machines. To address this gap in the literature, we propose the PHH format which provides a concise human-readable machine-friendly representation of hand history that comprehensively captures various details of the hand, ranging from initial game parameters and actions to contextual parameters including but not limited to the venue, players, and time control information. In the supplementary, we provide 10,088 hands covering 11 different variants in the PHH format. The full specification is available on https://github.com/uoftcprg/phh-std

Instruction-Driven Game Engine: A Poker Case Study [53.689520884467065]
The IDGE project aims to democratize game development by enabling a large language model to follow free-form game descriptions and generate game-play processes. We train the IDGE in a curriculum manner that progressively increases its exposure to complex scenarios. Our initial progress lies in developing an IDGE for Poker, which not only supports a wide range of poker variants but also allows for highly individualized new poker games through natural language inputs.

Unifying Multimodal Retrieval via Document Screenshot Embedding [92.03571344075607]
Document Screenshot Embedding (DSE) is a novel retrieval paradigm that regards document screenshots as a unified input format. We first craft the dataset of Wiki-SS, a 1.3M Wikipedia web page screenshots as the corpus to answer the questions from the Natural Questions dataset. In such a text-intensive document retrieval setting, DSE shows competitive effectiveness compared to other text retrieval methods relying on parsing.
