An Information Design of Narratology: The Use of Three Literary Theories in a Narrative Generation System

An integrated narrative generation system, which we develop, generates an event concept by referring to noun and verb concepts than a conceptual dictionary. However, the noun and verb concepts were selected at random. Considering the choice of the noun concept, we used the frequency information and co-occurrence information. Furthermore, we implement a similar method considering the verb concept selection. The method of the verb concept selection based on frequency information assumed in this paper premises that the appearance frequency of all concepts is prepared for. When it is extreme that all the candidates of a certain verb concept are of frequency 0, the concept of selection based on the frequency is in good agreement with the conventional random selection without functioning. Therefore, we suggest a method using the co-occurrence information between the concepts. We demonstrate a calculation result of the frequency information using the co-occurrence information in the verb concept when the frequency information becomes 0, in particular in the calculation method of the frequency information.

This study presents a method of selecting verb concepts based on analysis of co-occurrence information of verbs in modern Japanese novels collected from the Japanese digital library, "Aozora Bunko". We plan to incorporate the proposed method into an integrated narrative generation system (INGS) that synthesizes various mechanisms (story generation, sentence generation, and so on) for narrative generation. We are currently developing such a system. In this study, we provide an overview of INGS and examine mechanisms related to the proposed method. In a verb conceptual dictionary that we have developed, as verb concepts of a variety of difficulty (comprehensibility) are mixed, the objective in this study is to adjust difficulty of verb concepts by using co-occurrence information on verb concepts. Our hypothesis is that the original concepts of co-occurrence and the resulting concepts have a proportional relationship. We investigate this hypothesis by incorporating proposed mechanism into an INGS.

“…One of the main current research topics is to design and develop the Integrated Narrative Generation System (INGS) [12,13]. INGS integrates diverse narrative elements into an organically integrated architecture based on a variety of background conceptual ideas or concepts relating to narrative generation, such as "expanded literary theory" [14,15] and "circulative narrative generation" [16].…”

Integrated Narrative Generation System (INGS) is a framework for integrating our previous researches on narrative generation. INGS integrates various narrative generation modules into an organic architecture. This paper presents a verb conceptual dictionary and a noun conceptual dictionary to be used in INGS. Each of the dictionaries has a conceptual hierarchy with single inheritance by is-a relations. A terminal concept in the verb conceptual dictionary describes one or more case frame(s), the constraints of the main elements and a sentence pattern. The basic description of each terminal concept in the noun conceptual dictionary associates the concept to the other noun concept. The purpose of the study is not developing general conceptual dictionaries, but building them as a mechanism in narrative generation, especially in INGS. Actually, we have combined the two developed conceptual dictionaries with INGS. In this paper, we will present the basic mechanisms based on the cooperation of two types of conceptual dictionary through an implemented narrative generation system, INGS.
