چکیده

The invention of fictional ideas is often a central process in the creative production of artefacts such as poems, music, paintings and games. Currently, fictional ideation is being studied by the Computational Creativity community within the WHIM European project. The aim of WHIM is to develop the What-If Machine, a software system capable of inventing, evaluating and presenting fictional ideas with cultural value. In this paper we explore the potential applications of the What-If Machine in the context of games. Specifically, we propose ways in which the What-If Machine can be used as an assistant for the design of games, by providing ideas about characters, the environment, etc., as well as a creative system during gameplay, through interesting interactions with the player.

What If A Fish Got Drunk? Exploring the Plausibility of Machine-Generated Fictions

Within the WHIM project, we study fictional ideation: processes for automatically inventing, assessing and presenting fictional ideas. Here we examine the foundational notion of the plausibility of fictional ideas, by performing an empirical study to surface the factors that affect judgements of plausibility. Our long term aim is to formalise a computational method which captures some intuitive...

Automating Fictional Ideation using ConceptNet

The invention of fictional ideas (ideation) is often a central process in producing artefacts such as poems, music and paintings in a creative way. Automated fictional ideation should, therefore, be of much interest in the study of Computational Creativity, but only a few approaches have been explored. We describe here the preliminary results of a new method for automated generation and evaluat...

Empirical evidence of the limits of automatic assessment of fictional ideation

Automatic evaluation of fictional ideation systems and their output is a topic relevant to Computational Creativity. Models and techniques have been proposed for this task, but their applicability is limited to the field of fictional ideation. In this paper we describe an evaluation procedure for fictional ideation, which compares human validation of the ideas with a number of automatically gen...
