Narrative Planning

Narrative planning focuses on automatically generating compelling stories, a task currently tackled using large language models (LLMs) often augmented by symbolic planning techniques like answer set programming. Research emphasizes improving the coherence, diversity, and pacing of generated narratives, addressing challenges such as creating detailed outlines and acquiring action models from text to drive character actions. These advancements hold significant potential for enhancing interactive storytelling in games and other applications, as well as providing new tools for analyzing and understanding narrative structure.
