The Affective Storyteller: Using Character Emotion to Influence Narrative Generation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present the Affective Storyteller, a narrative generation framework that combines storytelling and emotion. With this framework we propose to address two main challenges in narrative generation: customization, and, reduced calculation time. Our solution is based on the fact that narrative generation in the Affective Storyteller is influenced by an analysis of the emotional patterns of the synthetic characters in the stories. These emotions are simulated using GAMYGDALA.

Human users can participate in the creation of the story by taking interactive control of a character. The use of a text based interface, like that of a Object Oriented MUD (a MOO), is appealing due to its simplicity. In this paper, I discuss the alternative methods to integrate the MOO user interf...

متن کاملAffective Character Network for Understanding Plots of Narrative Contents
It is important to understand the stories from narrative multimedia contents (e.g., movies), and to exploit the stories for smart services (e.g., video summarization and personalized multimedia recommendation). In this paper, we extend CharNet (Character Network) to Affective CharNet (Affective Character Network) by annotating emotional relationships between characters. More importantly, we pro...
