Emergent Stories Based on Autonomous Characters with Mindreading Capabilities
نویسندگان
چکیده
Virtual storytelling often uses a fixed, pre-scripted storyline, constraining the characters’ autonomy and behaviour. An agent-based approach provides possibilities of a narrative emerging from interaction between a number of autonomous characters. In this paper such an approach is proposed, based on autonomous virtual agents that have mindreading capabilities. The approach is applied to generate out of a number of interacting characters a soap storyline, in which some of the characters use mindreading in order to mislead and manipulate the other characters.

From IVAs to Comics Generating Comic Strips from Emergent Stories with Autonomous Characters
Emergent narrative systems create stories which are always different from each other. Creating summaries of these stories is a challenge especially if we want to capture the richness of the characters. Our goal is to automatically generate summaries from emergent narrative using comics as the visual medium for the summary. We identify the most important situations in the story log looking at th...

Emergent narrative is an approach to interactive storytelling in which stories result from local interactions of autonomous characters. We describe a technique for emergent narrative that enables the characters to fill in the story world during the simulation when this is useful for the developing story.

We consider the issues involved in taking educational roleplay into a virtual environment with intelligent graphical characters, who implement a cognitive appraisal system and autonomous action selection. Issues in organizing emergent narratives are discussed with respect to a Story Facilitator as well as the impact on the authoring process.
متن کاملSimulation-Based Story Generation with a Theory of Mind
Emergent narrative refers to simulation-based systems in which stories emerge from the autonomous interactions among character agents and/or the human player. Despite its advantages in interactive games, emergent narrative attracts concern about whether complex narratives emerge from arbitrary interactions. This problem can be alleviated if the character agents act according to what a story sho...
متن کاملEmergent Stories Facilitated An architecture to generate stories using intelligent synthetic characters
We consider the issues involved in developing an architecture that is generic enough to be applied to entertainment/educational applications that convey stories through the interactions between intelligent graphical characters and a user. Issues in organizing the emergent content are discussed and two two storytelling applications that use the architecture are described.
