Several studies have proposed a concept called "informational narratology" or "information narratology." In this paper, we integrate narratological studies, including narratology and various literary theories, into information technologies, such as artificial intelligence and cognitive science, in order to mainly design and develop systems that automatically generate, create, or produce digital narrative contents related to a variety of existing or future narrative genres. Under this framework, we design and develop narrative generation systems, advertise image processing systems, and develop narrative film operation systems. In this paper, we present an overview of the concept of informational narratology, and introduce the above three studies as concrete approaches to its development.

“…In several studies on computational narrative generation [18], [32], [33], narrative discourse generation has been designed based on Genette's narratology [21] that systematically categorizes various classes of discourse structures through the analysis of a novel. These computational models commonly formalize the narrative discourse generation process with a set of transformational techniques from a story structure to a discourse structure.…”

Abstract-Narrative ability is an essential element of human intelligence from the perspectives of both psychology and artificial intelligence (AI). It includes many intellectual functions: narrative generation, narrative understanding or interpretation, narrative-mediated communication, and the manipulation of narrativity-based knowledge. The computational modeling of narrative ability is a critical problem in the development of human-like AI agents and user-friendly intelligent information systems. However, implementing this model involves many difficult challenges owing to the structural and phenomenal complexity of narratives. The broader purpose of this study is to develop a computational model of narrative ability from an AI perspective. In this study, we explore the formulation of a conceptual framework of computational narrative ability including a narrativity-based knowledge model and operational modules for this knowledge model. Index Terms-Artificial intelligence, computational narrative ability, narrative agent, story-form knowledge.

“…In particular, in kabuki, a variety of forms ("kata"), which means collections of paternal knowledge relating to various fields, including the dances performed by actors in each kabuki scene, frequently use story patterns, etc., to enable the use of free combinations of elements to construct multiple structures in a work. 5,6,7 The author has been studying kabuki in order to introduce the acquired knowledge into two types of mutually related narrative-generation systems, called Integrated Narrative Generation System (INGS) 8 and Geino Information System (GIS). 1 In particular, the author has been studying kabuki from the viewpoint of the multiple-narrative-structure model.…”

Although kabuki is a genre of, so to speak, traditional performing arts, it also has many of the characteristics of a contemporary genre, including such various elements as narrative, drama, dance, and music. This analysis and study will contribute to the design and development of studies on digital-narrative generation. The author has previously surveyed and analyzed kabuki's narrative structures from the viewpoint of a multiple narrative structure model, particularly the generation or production processes involved in its creation and its reception and consumption processes. Kabuki's multiple-narrative-structure model means that the entire structure of kabuki is constructed through multiple usages of related information. For example, in kabuki the element of the "person" is divided into three: a "character" within a narrative work, an actor with a history of performances and who uses a stage name, and a real human with a true name. This multiplicity provides the person with multiple and deep characteristics. In this paper, based on these previous studies, the author discusses a method that bridges this kabuki analysis with system design and involves the use of two narrative generation systems: an Integrated Narrative Generation System (INGS) and a Geino Information System (GIS).
