As researchers continue to develop artificial intelligence (AI), the tech is becoming widespread in various sectors of the world. We have seen AI-based tools and systems monitor traffic, simulate Wimbledon matches, and even mimic celebrity voices. Now, two AI-researchers have developed an AI-powered machine learning model that can recognize the genre of a video game title based on its cover.

In order to create the initial database, the researchers took 50,000 video game titles with their cover images, description texts, title texts, and genre info. According to the researchers, developers and other AI-researchers can use this dataset for various other studies like “text recognition from images, automatic topic mining, and so on”. Hence, they will make it available for the public soon.

The researchers say that the new video game-genre categorizing model can be of major help for gamers to find the perfect game for themselves. Moreover, video game sellers can use it to categorize and better organize their physical stores for customers to find their desired games easily.
