Described is a system for performing a simulated vehicle control task based on adversarial decision analysis. Empirical game theoretic analyses are performed between an evolving and an adversary population of neural network strategies. Each empirical game theoretic analysis includes using a neuroevolution procedure to perform a fitness-based selection of a strategy in the evolving population that out-performs the adversary population. Using an empirical game theory procedure, the neuroevolution procedure is iteratively run and the selected strategy is added to the adversary population with each iteration, resulting in monotonic strategy improvement with each iteration. Following the empirical game theoretic analyses, a final strategy is selected for the evolving population and the adversary population using a tournament selection procedure. The final strategy is used to train a neural network which is used to perform a simulated vehicle control task.
