skillalter
Skillalter is a theoretical framework and practical mechanism in which the set of skills or the proficiency of existing skills is dynamically modified during an activity. The term blends skill with alter to emphasize adaptive adjustments to requirements, availability, or emphasis of abilities in response to performance and task demands. It appears in discussions of adaptive difficulty, personalized training, and autonomous control systems.
Implementation approaches include parameter modulation, where skill levels act as controllable parameters that influence task difficulty
Applications span video games, education, rehabilitation, and robotics. In games, skillalter can tailor challenges to ongoing
Challenges include complexity, stability, and interpretability, as well as concerns about fairness and unintended bias in
