A Conceptual Blending Approach to the Generation of Cognitive Scripts for Interactive Narrative
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a computational approach to the generation of cognitive scripts employed in freeform activities such as pretend play. Pretend play activities involve a high degree of improvisational narrative construction using cognitive scripts acquired from everyday experience, cultural experiences, and previous play experiences. Our computational model of cognitive script generation, based upon conceptual integration theory, applies operations to familiar scripts to generate new blended scripts.

Walking Blues Changes Undersea: Imaginative Narrative in Interactive Poetry Generation with the GRIOT System
Emotionally stirring imaginative narratives help us to make sense of the human condition, including elements of life such as the nature of tragedy, joy, and compassion. Such issues, including happiness and beauty, are seldom interpreted as having much to do with computation. This paper presents an approach to computational narrative that emphasizes meaning and imagination. This approach is base...
متن کاملStyle: A Computational and Conceptual Blending-Based Approach
This chapter proposes a new approach to style, arising from our work on computational media using structural blending, which enriches the conceptual blending of cognitive linguistics with structure building operations in order to encompass syntax and narrative as well as metaphor. We have implemented both conceptual and structural blending, and conducted initial experiments with poetry, includi...
متن کاملDaydreaming with Intention: Scalable Blending-Based Imagining and Agency in Generative Interactive Narrative
Daydreaming is a creative human capacity to construct and run imaginative concepts through the mind in parallel with perception and awareness of the real world. Such experiences can be described in recent cognitive science terms as cases of “mirror network” or “double-scope” conceptual blending, the mental processes of integrating and dynamically executing concepts with shared or clashing under...

متن کاملDaydreaming with Intention: Scalable Blending-Based Imagining and Agency in Generative Interactive Narrative
This paper presents recent development of a blending-based system that generates interactive narrative output. Besides expanding the GRIOT system to dynamically reconfigure discourse, we introduce a novel construct called a “scale of intentionality.” As a cultural production, the first application of these advances is an interactive narrative of a character’s daydreamed memories, intertwined wi...
