Minimal Structures for Stories
Nicolas Szilas, Jean-Hugues Réty
Abstract:
Our research on Interactive Drama aims at conciliating interaction and story at the deepest level, the level of action. From a given story representation formalism, a set of elementary narrative structures is derived in order to capture the minimal requirements for providing a narrative and interactive experience to a user. Some of these structures are implemented and simulated, to illustrate the quality and limitations of each structure.
