Proceeding of: IEEE Congres on Computational Intelligence and Games (CIG'10), Copenhagen (Denmark), 18-21, August, 2010. ; This paper presents a controller for the 2010 Simulated Car Racing Championship. The idea is not to create the fastest controller but a human-like controller. In order to achieve this, first we have created a process to build a model of the tracks while the car is running and then we used several neural networks which predict the trajectory the car should follow and the target speed. A scripted policy is used for the gear change and to follow the predicted trajectory with the predicted speed. The neural networks are trained with data retrieved from a human player, and are evaluated in a new track. The results shows an acceptable performance of the controller in unknown tracks, more than 20% slower than the human in the same tracks because of the mistakes made when the controller tries to follow the trajectory. ; This work was supported in part by the University Carlos III of Madrid under grant PIF UC3M01-0809 and by the Ministry of Science and Innovation under project TRA2007- 67374-C02-02.
