We provide full game state data along\nwith the original replays that can be viewed in StarCraft. The game state data\nwas recorded every 3 frames which ensures suitability for a wide variety of\nmachine learning tasks such as strategy classification, inverse reinforcement\nlearning, imitation learning, forward modeling, partial information extraction,\nand others. We use TorchCraft to extract and store the data, which standardizes\nthe data format for both reading from replays and reading directly from the\ngame. Furthermore, the data can be used on different operating systems and\nplatforms. The dataset contains valid, non-corrupted replays only and its\nquality and diversity was ensured by a number of heuristics. We illustrate the\ndiversity of the data with various statistics and provide examples of tasks\nthat benefit from the dataset. We make the dataset available at\nhttps://github.com/TorchCraft/StarData .
