fAR-PLAY: A framework to develop Augmented/Alternate Reality Games
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Augmented/Alternate Reality Games are a relatively new, yet increasingly interesting, class of social applications. These games are fundamentally intertwined with the players' real life, in that the players' everyday activities generate events that advance the game logic. At the same time, they augment the players' “regular” activities with game-related tasks and challenges and with rich digital content that is communicated to the players through a variety of devices, usually augmenting their mobile-device views. In our work, we have been developing a software framework, fAR-Play, to support the development of educational AARG games, in the treasure-hunt style, using space as the context for communicating information. Our toolkit extends the stereotypical notion of AARGs to include a virtual world in which the players can also interact and play. Our toolkit has been evaluated through (and has evolved based on our experience with) the development of several specific games.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
