Towards an Integrated Narrative Generation System Based on Structural Techniques and Generation Control

In this paper, after we show basic concepts of our narrative generation system architecture as the engine of new types of digital contents and the attempt of a tentative integrated narrative generation system, we discuss two fundamental mechanisms for the new design. Structural techniques are integrated into generative rules with a unified form so as to apply flexibly various types of techniques. Control mechanism is hierarchically organized to generate concrete techniques from abstract parameters and has a mechanism of the interaction between narrator and narratee inside the system to perform cyclic generation process.
