Exploring Abductive Event Binding for Opportunistic Storytelling
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a prototype game system using opportunistic storytelling, a particular commitment in the space of interactive narrative. It uses abductive event binding to deliver authored stories about the actions that the player is already taking to achieve game play goals. We show results of a simulation experiment that characterizes efficiency in delivering story event content, in terms of parameterized player motivation to follow storylines and the constraints placed on the events. Results show the value of two reasoning features in the system, incentive and look-ahead.

Towards a Model-Learning Approach to Interactive Narrative Intelligence for Opportunistic Storytelling
Opportunistic storytelling is an approach to interactive narrative where the AI challenge is to tell a story about what the player is doing, with game play providing the ordinary activity that underlies story events. In this preliminary work, we motivate the need for event prediction within this framework, and describe a machine learning approach to the problem. We report results showing how di...
متن کاملOpportunistic Storytelling: An Experience-Oriented Strategy for Playable Interactive Narratives
AI research in interactive narrative often lacks specificity as to the player experience it is trying to enable. In this paper, we consider a set of desirable elements from narrative and interactive experiences, and show by looking at playable experiences from industry and academia that combining them has the potential to be limited or self-defeating. To address these issues, we propose opportu...
متن کاملDigital Storytelling: Automatic Animation for Time-Varying Data Visualization
This paper presents a digital storytelling approach that generates automatic animations for time-varying data visualization. Our approach simulates the composition and transition of storytelling techniques and synthesizes animations to describe various event features. Specifically, we analyze information related to a given event and abstract it as an event graph, which represents data features ...

متن کاملTemporal Reasoning with Abductive Event Calculus
We present the SLDNFA procedure, which integrates two important nonmonotonic paradigms, negation as failure and abduction. The main diierence between SLDNFA and existing approaches is the improved treatment of non-ground abductive goals. We present an extension for temporal reasoning based on Abductive Event Calculus. We show the power of the approach by applying it to planning and solving well...
