Ludic Unreliability and Deceptive Game Design [PDF]
Journal of the Philosophy of Games, 2021 Drawing from narratology and design studies, this article makes use of the notions of the ‘implied designer’ and ‘ludic unreliability’ to understand deceptive game design as a specific subset of transgressive game design. More specifically, in this text we present deceptive game design as the deliberate attempt to misguide players’ inferences about the

Inaccessible and Deceptive: Examining Experiences of Deceptive Design with People Who Use Visual Accessibility Technology. [PDF]
Proc SIGCHI Conf Hum Factor Comput SystDeceptive design patterns manipulate people into actions to which they would otherwise object. Despite growing research on deceptive design patterns, limited research examines their interplay with accessibility and visual accessibility technology (e.g., screen readers, screen magnification, braille displays).

Design Thinking for Cyber Deception [PDF]
Proceedings of the Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, 2021 Cyber deception tools are increasingly sophisticated but rely on a limited set of deception techniques. In current deployments of cyber deception, the network infrastructure between the defender and attacker comprises the defence/attack surface. For cyber deception tools and techniques to evolve further they must address the wider attack surface; from ...

LiFE: Deep Exploration via Linear-Feature Bonus in Continuous Control
Tsinghua Science and Technology, 2023 Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithms work well with well-defined rewards, but they fail with sparse/deceptive rewards and require additional exploration strategies. This work introduces a deep exploration method based on the Upper Confidence Bound (UCB)
