CURRENT PROJECTS

• Computer models of Collaborative Narrative: Mexica-impro

The purpose of the present project is to create a computer model of narrative improvisation between two agents within a social context. Based on this idea we require:

- To define a simulated social and cultural context that allows establishing problems, practices and social norms.

- To define a model for the improvisation of narratives, based on the MEXICA program, that includes criteria derived from cognitive sciences and science communication.

- To develop a computer system capable of putting together two independent computational agents in situations of narrative improvisation

- To define criteria for assessing creativity, coherence and interestingness of the stories produced by the agents.

- To evaluate the theoretical models that were employed to build the computer agents.

• Generation of Visual Narratives

• A Cognitive Model of Narration
 

• Automatic Generation of Parallel Narratives

• A Computer Model for Knowledge Generalization Applied to Narrative Generation

• A Computer Model of a Developmental Agent
