Machine-learned trust scoring based on sensor data

Abstract

A trained machine learning model(s) is used to determine scores (e.g., trust scores) for user accounts registered with a video game service, and the scores are used to match players together in multiplayer video game settings. For example, sensor data received from client machines can be provided as input to the trained machine learning model(s), and the trained machine learning model(s) generates scores as output, which relate to probabilities that the game control data received from those client machines was generated by handheld devices, as opposed to having been synthesized and/or modified using software. In this manner, subsets of logged-in user accounts executing a video game can be assigned to different matches (e.g., by isolating non-human players from human players) based at least in part on the scores determined for those logged-in user accounts, and the video game is executed in the assigned match for each logged-in user account.
