This demo features a user interface for authoring stories and story fragments for use by the Minstrel Remixed story generation system. It also demonstrates Minstrel Remixed in use, allowing users to author story fragments and then have Minstrel Remixed expand these fragments and generate stories based on them. The focus is on the interface for storyfragment authoring, which exposes Minstrel's g...

Scott Turner's 1993 Minstrel system was a high water mark in story generation, harnessing the concept of imaginative recall to generate creative stories. Using case based reasoning and an author level planning system, Minstrel models human creative processes. However, the algorithmic and representational commitments made in Minstrel were never subject to principled and quantitative analysis. By...

Minstrel is a practical rate selection algorithm for commodity 802.11 radios, implemented in the Linux kernel and the ns-3 network simulator. Design of a rate selection mechanism is complicated by the variety of sources of packet loss in 802.11 networks, the difficulty of testing rate adaptation, and interaction with higher layer protocols (especially TCP). Minstrel is based solely on acknowled...

This paper is a review of a story generation system called Minstrel. It uses complex but hand-crafted Lisp knowledge structures to generate short computer-generated stories within the King Arthur domain. The knowledge representation model of Minstrel is reimplemented using a W3C standard language to analyze the pros and cons of technology updates over this kind of classic AI projects.

Creativity creating new solutions to problems is an integral part of the problem-solving process. This paper presents a cognitive model of creativity in which a case-based problem-solver is augmented with (1) a creative drive and (2) a set of creativity heuristics. New solutions are discovered by solving a slightly different problem and adapting that solution to the original problem. By repeati...

Intelligent storytelling systems either formalize specific narrative structures proposed by narratologists (such as Propp and Bremond), or are founded on formal representations from artificial intelligence (such as plan structures from classical planning). This disparity in underlying knowledge representations leads to a lack of common evaluation metrics across story generation systems, particu...

Çalışmanın konusu asırlık bir birikimin temsilcisi olan âşıkların şiirlerinde geçen kuş motiflerini belirlemek ve bu kuşların hangi özellikleri ile birlikte ele alındığını yorumlamak olmuştur. Türk kültürünün ortak kültür miraslarından âşık şiiri üzerinden kültüre ait unsurların izini sürmek mümkündür. Toplumun parçası toplumdan beslenen âşıklar toplumun maddi manevi unsurlarını şiirlerine taşı...
