We are pleased to present 18 research competitions, that will be funded by the IEEE CIS Competition Subcommittee. The best entry of each competition will receive a $500USD prize. Good luck to all participants!.

Last but not least, we present to you the Fighting Game AI competition in its 8th installment. Get your boxing gloves and join the fight at @ieee_cog.

What do you want to know?.

Have you ever played AngryBirds and couldn't get enough of it? Train an AI agent to do the same and participate in the AIBIRDS competition. Learn how to get started at @ieee_cog #AngryBirds.

Following up on four years of competitions, the Multi-modal optimization competition offers a total of 20 benchmark functions to test your algorithms and compare their results in a competitive environment. See and get started today. @wcci2020.

Leaving the games domain for a moment, we have some more interesting practical problems. For example, check out the Robust Optimization Competition at and learn more about furnace roasting processes. @wcci2020.

If you want to start developing an AI for collectible card games but you have no idea where to start, check out the Strategy Card Game AI Competition. Learn how to participate at or start playing now at @ieee_cog.

You're just getting started with AI development? The Snake AI competition is perhaps the best opportunity to get acquainted with the subject while having a lot of fun. Check out for more information. @ieee_cog.

A single RTS competition is not enough? Go ahead and perfect your skill at the "Starcraft AI" competition. Terrans, Zerg, and Protoss fight for the win. Which race will you choose? Find out more at #Starcraft @ieee_cog.

Do you like strategy games? We too! Don't be fooled by the simple graphics of the MicroRTS competition. It can be as challenging and fun as other RTS games. Check out for more information. #MicroRTS @ieee_cog.

Even more games can be found at the Ludii AI Competition. More than 200 games await to be mastered by your AI. Better start training today and get started at @ieee_cog.

While learning to play a game can be fun, learning to play multiple games must be even better! The General Video Game AI Learning Track challenges your agent to play three games in a unified framework. More info at @ieee_cog @gvgai.

A total of 100 optimization problems await at the "Evolutionary Multitasking" competition. Learn how to get started at @wcci2020.

Do you want to help out in clinical studies? Start today by participating in the "Clinical Brain-Computer Interfaces Challenge". Apply state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms to analyze #EEG data. Check out the data sets at @wcci2020.

Have you ever played #MegaMan and struggled against its tough bosses? Take revenge at the "EvoMan" competition and use the power of machine learning to win the fight. Check out and start training for the next boss. @ieee_cog.

Ready for some fun? The "Bot Bowl" competition adapts the famous #bloodbowl tabletop game to create a unique challenge for game AI. Find out more about the competition at @ieee_cog.

Ever wondered how the smart grid works? Learn more about it while working on challenging optimization problems at the "Evolutionary Computation in the Energy Domain: Smart Grid Applications" competition. Start today at #SmartGrid #Optimization #CEC2020.

Do you like to play Hearthstone? Implement your own AI agent in the "Hearthstone AI competition". Either train your agent to play pre-made decks or participate in the deck-building track. More info at #Hearthstone @ieee_cog.

Test your optimization skills at the "Offline Data-Driven Evolutionary Optimization". Both tracks present benchmark problems in aerodynamic optimization and software configuration tuning. Check out for more information! #Optimization @wcci2020.

Competitions will be based at the IEEE Conference on Games (@ieee_cog) and IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (@wcci2020).
