Evaluating the Use of Action Templates to Create Suspense in Narrative Planning
نویسندگان
چکیده
The IRIS story generation system is a narrative planner that is designed to create suspenseful stories at the story-action level. It uses a set of action templates that are injected into the planning process to create suspense around a given goal. The action templates were evaluated independent of the rest of the IRIS system against a series of other techniques designed to create suspense. Results show that it is possible to use these set of action templates to create localized moments of suspense in a story at the story-action level without the need for discourse-level suspense.

Adapting IRIS, a Non-Interactive Narrative Generation System, to an Interactive Text Adventure Game
The IRIS story generation system is a narrative planner that is designed to create suspenseful stories at the story-action level. The system has been previously shown to be able to create suspense in a non-interactive context. We show that, when a series of transformations on the original IRIS output are applied, the IRIS framework is also effective at creating suspense in the context of an int...
متن کاملA Computational Model of Narrative Generation for Suspense
Although suspense contributes significantly to the enjoyment of a narrative by its readers, its role in dynamic story generation systems has been largely ignored. This paper presents Suspenser, a computational model of narrative generation that takes as input a given story world and constructs a narrative structure intended to evoke the desirable level of suspense from the reader at a specific ...
متن کاملCreating Interactive Narrative Structures: The Potential for AI Approaches
This paper poses a number of questions that center on the relationship between narrative in an interactive environment and the representations and reasoning processes that AI researchers might bring to bear to create and maintain such narrative experiences. Narrative Structure and the Representations of Actions and Plans Narrative theorists (Rimmon-Keenan, 1998, Bal 1999) characterize the build...
متن کاملThe Study of “the World as an Image” in the Narrative of “The story of Siavash” Using Genette’s Theory
Narrative process and its narrative mechanisms help the reader make sense of the way events happen in a story. Using repeating images in the text of a story is a method of narrative development. In Shahnameh, dealing with the world and images it gives rise to is one of the central motives of the text. The narrator in different parts of the poem seems captivated by the image of the world and th...
متن کاملToward a Computational Model of Affective Responses to Stories for Augmenting Narrative Generation
Current approaches to story generation do not utilize models of human affect to create stories with dramatic arc, suspense, and surprise. This paper describes current and future work towards computational models of affective responses to stories for the purpose of augmenting computational story generators. I propose two cognitively plausible models of suspense and surprise responses to stories....
